Kagoule is heading to NYC for its debut US performances next week. The two-day stay sees Kagoule playing at the East Village’s Cake Shop 9/10 and a free show at Williamsburg’s Rough Trade 9/11.

The band’s US live debut will be followed up by a host of dates taking the band across Europe in support of Sub Pop’s METZ and finishing with there first full UK headline tour from November to December.

To celebrate the tour, Kagoule have offered up two new live tracks (“Mike” and “Glue”) from Urth which were recorded in an XFM Session back in July and are available to stream right now for free on soundcloud and shared a video for cover  “Walking the Cow” (Daniel Johnston Cover) via YouTube.

Produced by Ross Orton (Arctic Monkeys, M.I.A, The Fall) and Pete Fletcher (Childhood), Kagoule’s debut album Urth recalls the energy and ideas of Bikini Kill, the sugar-dusted grunge of Smashing Pumpkins and the angular rhythms and confrontational post-hardcore blueprint of Fugazi, with a pedal rack metaphorically half-inched from Dinosaur Jr.

The Nottingham-based trio of Cai Burns, Lucy Hatter and Lawrence English has already been tipped as a “2015 Artist to Watch” by Rolling Stone, headlined the BBC Stage at Glastonbury and opened for Johnny Marr, Sebadoh, and Brian May.

"We represent the sound of boredom," says Hatter, of the band's inception. "The sound of three 15 year olds wanting to do something."
