Destroyer announces fall headline tour, shares “Cataract Time” from upcoming album (BV Presale for NYC)

Destroyer just wrapped up his run opening for Father John Misty, and now Dan Bejar has announced a Destroyer headlining tour happening this fall in support of his upcoming album Dan’s Boogie.

The tour includes an NYC show at Knockdown Center on October 11. You can get tickets early on BrooklynVegan Presale starting Thursday, March 6 at 10 AM ET.

All dates are listed below.

Dan’s Boogie is out March 28 via Merge (preorder on Coke Bottle clear / black swirl vinyl) and the new single from it is the sumptuous “Cataract Time,” a swaying, autumnal number that’s full of lightly plucked harp strings, atmospheric E-Bow’d guitars, and sultry sax. (You can also dance to it.) “The song is a reckoning, a dressing down, a walk in the park where you carefully record your steps and describe the park and somehow the recording and the description undoes you,” Dan says. “Which is why it’s important that the song be as groovy as it is. That part I didn’t see coming. There is a lightness that points to a future, even if I think it’s the heaviest thing I’ve ever written. John outdid himself in the mix. His filigree harps changed everything. I think it is his favourite song on the record.”
