In support of their forthcoming album, The World Unseen - due out April 1st, Mamiffer have announced a two week tour in March and April.  Following their performance at Treefort Music Festival in Boise (March 24-27), Mamiffer will play five shows that will take them to Knoxville, TN for Big Ears Festival, then they'll circle back through the midwest for four more dates that will end at Mission Creek Festival in Iowa City.  Check out the tour routing, which also includes stops in Salt Lake City, Denver, Omaha, Columbia, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Chicago, Milwaukee & Minneapolis, below.

Mamiffer recently unveiled the first single off of The World Unseen, "Mara", on Noisey, which was described as having an "emotional landscape that's rich and full, yet leaves enough ambiguity to dramatically alter what one might absorb from listen to listen." Through the use of piano, voice, guitar, Wurlitzer organ, bass synthesizer, tape machines, and effects pedals, The World Unseen is an eight-song aural lexicon that vacillates between Arvo Pärt’s delicate minimalist beauty, Thomas Köner’s narcotic pulses of noise, and Richard Pinhas’ sublime textural patterns. Further expanding upon their explorations, Mamiffer enlisted Eyvind Kang for string arrangements. Geneviève Beaulieu (Menace Ruine) and Joe Preston (Thrones) make guest appearances on “Domestication of the Ewe pt. III”, contributing additional choral vocals and bass, and adding greater dimension to their auditory crossings. Despite this impressive arsenal of musicians and instruments, Mamiffer ultimately depends as much on empty space as they do upon the various oscillating frequencies within their sound.

It was a slow and patient journey to arrive at the final formation of The World Unseen.  Chance, accident and imperfections were used as compositional tools, and unplanned chaos revealed itself as having its own harmonious order and healing litany. The songs took their shape from source material that stretched back as far as 2011. Mamiffer then began to capture those songs in recording sessions at their home studio and at AVAST! Studio in Seattle with producer/engineer Randall Dunn throughout 2013 and 2014. The World Unseen sees the light of day April 1, 2016 on CD, 2xLP, and digital formats via SIGE Records in the U.S. and as a CD with a bonus disc on Daymare Records in Japan.

More song premieres and news coming soon.
