Tapes n’ Tapes & Sound Unseen in Rolling Stone! (2003)
After debuting at the 4th Annual Sound Unseen Festival, Tapes ‘n Tapes have been enjoying an impressive amount of national and international attention in various magazines, newspapers, music sites, and blogs. especially after the group performed at this year’s South by Southwest festival in Austin, TX to stellar reviews. The boys have recently joined bands such as The White Stripes, The Prodigy, and M.I.A. and signed with XL Recordings and completed a seven show tour of the UK in May. Up next? Tapes ‘n Tapes will be headlining their first U.S. tour beginning in June 2006, including two sold out performances at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom, and can be seen at the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago July 2006.
You can also get your hands on a vintage Sound Unseen DVD for their first music video - which was born by the band at a make-yer-own-music-video booth at the Mall of America…in Bloomington, Minnesota (east?).
