Wildbirds & Peacedrums play two very special shows in the UK this weekend, at the Pavement-curated ATP on Friday, followed by Bishopsgate Institute in London on Saturday. The duo will be joined by a 12-strong Swedish choir for the shows, in which they will premiere songs from their forthcoming album, Rivers.
The remainder of their European tour has been rescheduled to October to coincide with the release of the new album. Tickets for the rearranged shows remain valid. The band have also announced three new shows, in France and Norway. All the new dates can be seen below.
Rivers compiles the 10 tracks from two limited edition vinyl only EPs which are released in May and June. The first, Retina, is out on May 24 and should be on sale at the UK gigs. You can pre-order both Retina and its partner, Iris (June 21), from our store now.

Wildbirds & Peacedrums Unveil New Video
Published 13 May 2010 by BWL
Wildbirds & Peacedrums have unleashed the video for 'Bleed Like There Was No Other Flood', the opening track from the forthcoming Retina EP (out May 24), and it's a cracker! The video is directed by fellow Swede Patrik Instedt and follows the theme of water central to Retina and its cousin, Iris, which is released in June. Much of the footage was filmed in Iceland, where both EPs were recorded, pre-volcanoes!
