Future Islands

The Romantic synth-pop trio from ‘the music capital of awesome’ (Baltimore) has that unique city identity flowing through its musical veins. Melodic overtones are in harmonious contrast with the deep, sometimes gruff voice of Samuel T Herring in excellent songs about love, loss and the future. It’s music that offers you a huge reward once you take time to absorb it. With three full-lengths and a couple of EPs under their belts, their pounding rhythms and sprouting melodies continue to seduce us since the release of their latest album, On the Water, in 2011, and we’re looking forward to hearing their upcoming 4AD album Singles. But in the meantime, we’re just as excited to see them live in Brussels, on a date that seems to fit them so perfectly. Indeed, we’ve found you the perfect date for Valentine’s Day. You provide the chocolates and flowers, we provide the romance!
