Gorillaz invite fans to ‘Spirit House’ immersive experience

#1 Post by perkana » Wed Apr 05, 2017 1:35 pm

I know there are some Gorillaz fans on here...
The band’s ‘Spirit House’, created in conjunction with Sonos, is described as “an immersive, high fidelity experience” where fans can experience “exclusive music and visuals through physical installations and projection mapping technology”.
Gorillaz introduced their ‘Spirit House’ in their recent video for comeback track ‘Saturn Barz’. The pop-up experience will visit New York from April 21-23, Berlin from April 28-30, and Amsterdam on May 6. Fans can request tickets (which are free) here: http://www.sonos.com/en-gb/gorillaz-spirit-house-rsvp.

The Gorillaz show is definitely improved. I saw them in Seattle during the Plastic Beach tour. Front row. A few feet from Mick Jones. Likely one of my favorite shows of all time.

Ya to be fair I would assume it would have improved...They were trailblazing...Sure they​ learned a ton since I saw them (which was supporting their first album)

Gorillaz have announced a North American tour, their first since the promotional run behind 2010's Plastic Beach. The virtual band led by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett will kick off their Humanz trek July 8th in Chicago and conclude with a slot at Miami's III Points Festival, which takes place October 13th through 15th.

The 17-date multi-media tour will feature Albarn onstage along with real-life musicians and virtual Gorillaz Murdoc Niccals, Noodle, Russel Hobbs and 2D. An eclectic group of guest artists will join the band, including Jehnny Beth (Savages), Danny Brown, Benjamin Clementine, De La Soul, D.R.A.M., Peven Everett, Anthony Hamilton, Grace Jones, Zebra Katz, Kelela, Mavis Staples, Vince Staples, Popcaan, Pusha T, Jamie Principle and Kali Uchis, among others.

General tickets for the newly announced dates go on sale April 21st via the group's website.

Gorillaz' upcoming fifth LP, Humanz – their first in six years – is out April 28th. The cartoon crew detailed the album last month and released four new songs: "Andromeda" (featuring D.R.A.M.), "Saturn Barnz" (with Popcaan), "Ascension" (featuring Vince Staples) and "We Got the Power" (with Beth).
