That we have been able to find, Lefort<\/strong>-faves Lambchop<\/strong><\/a> have only performed live in California a mere\u00a0dozen times<\/strong> in their entire 23-year history<\/strong>, and a scant four (4!) times in Los Angeles). Thankfully those numbers are about to be augmented. Lambchop<\/strong> announced today that they have added to their tour one show in San Francisco (at their beloved Great American Music Hall<\/strong> on June 2nd) and one in Los Angeles (at the beloved Bootleg Theater<\/strong> on June 3rd). The band is out on tour in support of their fantastically-re-imagined, quantum-soundshift, and still-moving album, FLOTUS.<\/strong> <\/em>Bandleader Kurt Wagner<\/strong> has said that the beguiling new sound-scape was designed, at least in part, to get the attention and ear of his wife.<\/p>\n

To get a feel for the band’s newfound sound (Wagner’s<\/strong> deftly manipulated vocals, etc.) on FLOTUS<\/strong><\/em>, check out below their sweet cover of Prince’s<\/strong> seminal When You Were Mine<\/strong><\/em> (off Dirty Minds<\/strong><\/em>). The band has been performing the cover out on tour and we hope to hear it in June.<\/p>\n

Do yourselves a favor and pick up FLOTUS<\/strong><\/em> now HERE<\/a>. And at bottom check out and get tickets for the band’s upcoming tour dates.<\/p>\n
