The lads returned to their roots last night, playing New York’s Mercury lounge for the first time in over a year. The show was part of the annual CMJ music fest. There’s a few more photos here. Stay tuned.

Pela will be headlining the 10/23 CMJ show at the Mercury Lounge. Also on the bill is The Muslims, Frances, Blind Pilot, Hockey, and The Vettes. The lads will be going on at Mignight. For the rest of the schedule, check out the Mercury Lounge calendar. Since this is a CMJ show, it will almost certainly sell out, so get your tickets soon.

Pela was voted number 112 in KEXP’s countdown of the Top 903 albums OF ALL TIME as voted on by their listeners. Thanks to all of you who voted for us and thanks to KEXP for their support. You can show your appreciation for them by making a contribution to them during their pledge drive.
