Dirty Projectors: Bitte Orca, New Single and Tour Dates


Update: Video and song removed. Ahh "Stillness is the Move" we barely knew ye.

After a successful trip to Austin for SX, the Dirty Projectors are setting up for the release of their newest single, "Stillness is the Move." Amber Coffman's falsetto is intoxicating and Brian Mcomber's 80's Heartbreak-esque backing beat is delectable. To promote the new track, the Projectors are releasing a physical and digital "12 EP -- here is the track list:

"Stillness Is The Move (Album Version)"
"Stillness Is The Move (A Cappella Mix)"
"Stillness Is The Move (Lucky Dragons Remix)"
"Wave The Bloody Shirt"
"Bitte Bitte Orca"

Their newest album, Bitte Orca drops June 9 on Domino. We want it now.
