The Spinto Band Return To US For North American Tour w/Frightened Rabbit, YouTube Live Performance, and more!

The Spinto Band have just returned from their successful month-long European tour and are getting ready to hit North America this week with Frightened Rabbit in support of their brand new release Moonwink, out now on Park the Van Records!

The Delaware six-piece have been keeping busy. The band were invited to perform on KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic in November, are doing a WXPN World Cafe session, and were recently asked to perform at YouTube LIVE on November 22nd in San Francisco at the Herbst Pavilion in Fort Mason Center! Part concert, part variety show and part party, YouTube Live, the first event of its kind, will bring forth a live community celebration unlike any other. The two-hour event will begin at 5:00 pm (PT) and will be streamed for a worldwide audience of millions through YouTube at http://youtube.com/live. With celebrity guests, original videos, surprise collaborations and much more, The Spinto Band will be the ONLY live band performing. The guys will be creating some original videos for their YouTube channel in advance of their performance!

Spinto Press:
“‘Moonwink’ is the amicably off-kilter sophomore album that Clap Your Hands Say Yeah might have released if they weren’t trying to burn the hype machine that the lockstep bloggerati created in earnest…you can’t help but wink back.” – Filter

“…the hottest record in the world right now.” – Zane Lowe, BBC Radio 1

“‘Moonwink’ brims with jittery melodies and swaggering sing-alongs — the perfect soundtrack to anything,..” – SPIN

“Spinto Band knows exactly how to channel post-adolescent snickers and pre-professional abandon into tight, giddy guitar pop. Sharp, tinkling melodies reveal surprisingly sophisticated songwriting…” – Paste
