AKRON/FAMILY ANNOUNCE MAY TOUR DATES, SUMMER FESTIVALS & “RIVER” FREE MP3
“Probably the most engaging performance I’ve seen so far this week. The band and its audience both gushed with energy during this set…I think I want to see them live every day for the rest of my life.” – Dallas Observer blog
“Akron is fifty bands in one. There’s psychedelic rock, folk, free-jazz, hip-hop, punk, dance, gospel and heaps more, and they throw their back into every minute of it, creating a wickedly raw, exposed form of music that is absolutely impossible to cage up and put into a category box” – Jambase
Akron/Family’s Dead Oceans’ debut, Set ‘Em Wild, Set ‘Em Free, arrives May 5, but a free download from the band’s third proper LP, “River,” is available now. Fans who pre-order Set ‘Em Wild now will receive immediate access to an MP3 download of the entire album.
