GLASS ANIMALS IN CONCERT:
UK psych pop outfit Glass Animals stepped through the proverbial looking glass to arrive at their unique sound, and the result is a hallucinatory blend of indie rock, trip hop, and electronica.

Whether they're treating fans to the lilting beauty of "Gooey" or the percussive pulse of "Pools", Glass Animals always mesmerizes fans with their spellbinding compositions, psychedelic visuals, and captivating stage presence on tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
The lads of Oxford, England's Glass Animals have been friends since the age of 14, but they didn't start making music together until after high school. They made their debut in 2012 with the Leaflings EP, an auspicious record that hinted at the envelope-pushing psych pop sound they've become known for. In 2013 they caught the eye of legendary producer Paul Epworth (Adele, Florence and the Machine), who quickly signed them to his Wolf Tone label after attending one of their London shows. Their first outing under the direction of Epworth was a self-titled 2013 EP that further established their distinct sound and landed them on tour with fellow pop visionary St. Vincent. After a string of buzzworthy performances on the road, the band released their highly anticipated debut full-length Zaba to considerable critical acclaim. A rising new act with a forward-looking sound, Glass Animals continue to enthrall ticket buyers on their unforgettable tours.
