Pelican has announced their long-awaited new record Flickering Resonance, due out May 16 via Run For Cover. Flickering Resonance is also Pelican‘s first since since 2009’s What We All Come To Need to feature founding guitarist Laurent Schroeder-Lebecre. Pelican is now streaming “Flickering Resonance” in all its instrumental glory. So go listen to that and pre-order Flickering Resonance right here.
In anticipation of the release of the new album, the band have announced a very special early listening event in partnership with Chicago independent brewing powerhouse Half Acre and Half Acre’s Second Setting Cannabis. The band will be on hand at Half Acre’s Bowmanville brewery on April 20, Easter Sunday for a special DJ set that will include a debut playthrough of the new album, along with a selection of favorite jams and other Pelican rarities.
Half Acre will be serving pints of their terpene-infused Second Setting IPA, and will be joined onsite by local cannabis purveyors Second Setting and the Budrista Club. The band will have special limited edition merch on hand, including an event-specific 420 shirt (limited to 50 prints) and the very last remaining copies of the “Cascading Crescent” 7″ vinyl which includes a vocal version (exclusive to the vinyl) fronted by emo icon Geoff Rickly of Thursday on the b-side.
Pelican is currently out on the road with Russian Circles, and will also hit the road in July with Porcelain. Tickets are available here.
