New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Girlie Action Media & Marketing) Holy Ghost! are ready to kick off an extended touring schedule for the next few months and what better way to say bon voyage than by sharing their track "Some Children" featuring the lord of Yacht Rock, Mr. Michael McDonald. The track is available to fans for an email swap or a "like" on Facebook, which can be done HERE. There is also an amazing accompanying video illustrated by Adam Fuchs that was created in collaboration with Adult Swim. Brother of drummer Jerry Fuchs, Adam is part of the DFA extended family and was thrilled to make the video. Fuchs explains that he, Nick and Alex "have been talking about doing an animated video for a while now. When I first heard the beginning of "Some Children" I knew right away I wanted to do imagery going in and out of clouds. The song has a great 'holy' feel to it, and it felt right to go in that direction. I really wanted to play off of Michael McDonald's voice and have an image that would represent him as God, but also not be taken so literally. The Adult Swim thing came about, because Nick and Alex are big fans, and wanted to be involved in some way. I approached my bros at Adult Swim with the concept I had, and they loved it."
And this fall marks Holy Ghost!'s FIRST EVER headlining tour in the US in support of their recently release and much-adored debut album Holy Ghost!. Having spent the last year supporting friends LCD Soundsystem, Chromeo and Cut Copy on the road, they are now topping the bill. The group will be joined by two very dynamic acts: Jessica 6 and Eli Escobar, who are going to be a perfect start to the party. Be sure to catch one of this fall's hottest tours as it makes its way across the country. A select handful of dates are below and more will be announced shortly!
