Gruff Rhys U.S. Dates

A couple weeks ago we hit you with the new video for Gruff Rhys' new single "Sensations in the Dark" and we figured it'd just be dick to hold out on the tour dates. The Super Furry Animals frontman is headed stateside to plug his new release Hotel Shampoo, which drops May 3rd via Wichita. He'll be supported by fellow Welshman Y Niwl and the run kicks off on May 18 at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.

Gruff Rhys "Sensations in the Dark" Video

Today was kind of a bummer until I caught the new video from Gruff Rhys. The Super Furry Animals front man drops his new album Hotel Shampoo on March 3 via Wichita Records and offered up this bouncy pop nugget as the lead single.

In his refreshingly non-DIY video, Rhys lives out several of my life's goals. Who among us has not longed to record shop on horseback or have a drummer dressed in scuba gear?
