Company Of Thieves
May 23, 2011
Hot off a spring tour with the Whigs, the Chicago-based Company of Thieves are readying their summer headlining tour which kicks off June 4th. They will be touring in support of their sophomore album Running From A Gamble, realeased May 17th via Wind-Up Records.
The band have filmed acoustic versions of each song on the album and have posted videos of each. The first video is of lead single "Death of Communication" which premiered on Filter Magazine. Rest of the videos, can be seen on their website and facebook page.
Of the acoustic series lead singer Genevieve Schatz explains, "We decided to have a countdown to the release of our new album by sharing each song from a unique location that we found on tour or frequent when we are home in Chicago. We have always secretly wanted to play tourists-for-a-day and take a spin on the famous Ferris Wheel at Navy Pier, so we thought it would be fun to take you with us!"
