San Francisco indie-rock trio Geographer is gearing up for a summer headlining tour, with support from Carpark Records’ GRMLN, beginning August 8 in Portland, OR. The 3-week nationwide run is the follow-up to the band’s hugely successful headlining tour this past January, which saw them perform to sold out crowds in major cities including The Fillmore in San Francisco, Schubas in Chicago, The Echo in Los Angeles, The Mohawk in Austin and more. SF Weekly raves that their sets are “a surreal,” while The Bay Bridged declared, “Deni and the crew cast graceful, effervescent synth sounds and crystal-clear vocals over an undulating audience…a 90-minute (most likely drunken) dance party.” After the tour wraps, Geographer will be performing at the LAUNCH Festival in Sacramento, CA on September 8.
This tour continues a very successful 18 months for Geographer, including the release of their highly acclaimed album MYTH, which the San Francisco Chronicle proclaims “pop music hasn’t seen such a seamless marriage between techno beats and swooning cello parts since…well, this might just be a first.” Since the release, the band has spent most of their time on the road performing to sold out crowds all over the country alongside artists such as Freelance Whales, Sea Wolf, and ON AN ON.
Geographer is Mike Deni’s distinct melodic vocals, dazed synth melodies and alluring guitar riffs, Nathan Blaz’s haunting electric cello cords, and Brian Ostreicher’s vibrant drums.
