News: ACTORS Announce New Canadian Tour Dates

Posted on July 18, 2019 by

 
Fresh off the road with Empathy Test, ACTORS will be stopping in Victoria, Edmonton, Calgary, and Toronto before heading back to Europe to finish off the summer with tour dates and hitting several must-attend festivals, including Prague Gotik Treffen, NCN Festival, and Young & Cold Fest!
 
Hailing from Vancouver, Canada, ACTORS has been on tour non-stop since their Artoffact Records debut ‘It Will Come to You’ was released in 2018 and fans and the press have taken notice.

On ‘It Will Come to You’, anthemic songs evoke the urgency of early-80’s U2 (Boy, October, War) as well as the driving, synth-drenched scores that emanated from the era’s movie screens. As scene authority Post-Punk.com puts it, the band conjures “cinematic new-wave… that belongs on a Michael Mann soundtrack.”

The vinyl version of It Will Come to You is on its third pressing, and the band’s page on Spotify now has 30,000 monthly listeners, quite impressive for a new act. The band has also been featured on taste-making sites Decibel Magazine, Cvlt Nation, and Post-Punk.com, and recently the tracks “Slaves” and “Crystal” were placed in the Netflix American horror drama The Order. Yamaha Canada also announced a partnership with the band, cementing their status as serious contenders for the next big thing.

Watch their video for the song ‘Slaves’ HERE.

ACTORS will play four shows in Canada this summer before heading off to Europe. Tour dates below.

“Vancouver’s brilliant post-punk and new-wave quartet ACTORS continue their flair for sonic cinematics in the video for their latest track ‘Face Meets Glass’… The atmosphere quivers with singer Jason Corbett’s crooning reverb augmented by shivering guitars and stark synths.” 
–Post-Punk“Addictively dancey, uplifting and melancholy sounds… Beautiful, dark music.”
