Phantogram, Running Through Colors Tour, February 10
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Phantogram write nothing but Phanto-jams. The celebrated New York alternative duo released new album Memory Of A Day this month via Neon Gold Records, and it’s another transportive twirl through the creative swirl of of Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter. Now the band has detailed a North American tour that plays Boston’s Citizens House of Blues on February 10. The latest offering from the record, the pulsating “Attaway,” is classic ‘Gram. “‘Attaway’ might be our favorite song on the whole album,” the pair offers. “We love the way the pattern of the chords change throughout the song, yet still sounds cohesive and isn’t confusing. The way we incorporated a spaced-out looped sample with driving bass and angular guitar challenged us in a really fun and creative way. The massive, washed out and hypnotic chorus came so naturally in the studio. As unconventional as this song may seem on paper, it flowed out of us in a way that reminds me of why we make music in the first place, capturing the pure emotion and true essence of our being.” Get into it below. Tickets go on sale Friday (October 25) at 10 a.m. local time.
