The Helio Sequence on Small Town NW Tour

February 8th, 2009

Hey all you Helio Sequence lovers. Should you be living on the “fringes of society” in such far-out, enigmatic places as “Spokane”, “Bellingham” or “Salem”, today is your lucky day. The percussion-heavy, electro duo is bringing their excellent catalog to the outskirts of the Pac NW (calling it, unironically, “The All Northwest Tour ’09″) before heading out for some international festivals and another full US tour (TBA).

.

According to the band, they wanted to play “a bunch of cities we’ve never been through and coming back to some we’ve been meaning to play again for a while (Hello, Bellingham!)” If you’re wearing out your sneakers shufflin’ around one of these isolated outposts, mark your calendar appropriately. Their live show is a sight and sound to behold.

*Unrelated Note: I shamelessly admit that part of the motivation for this boring entry was to bump that shitty TV on the Radio post off the top spot. Hey, I have my opinions too. (Update: don’t be mad at me, Kev.)
