BC-bred synth-pop collective, Dear Rouge, will headline an extensive North American and European tour in support of the band’s well-received 2015 full-length debut, Black to Gold.
The North American leg will launch on October 14 in Red Deer, Alberta and run until November 21, with final show taking place in Victoria, British Columbia. In the middle, Dear Rouge will be visiting music hotspots like New York, Toronto, Montreal and Chicago.
From there, the band will throw its gear onto an airplane for a European tour that’ll begin on December 2 in Denmark and finish off on December 17 in Germany.
“We wrote most of [Black to Gold] at a family cabin,” explained Dear Rouge’s Danielle McTaggart in a 2014 interview with Riffyou.com. “We locked ourselves away and wrote music that we felt moved by at that point in our lives. Some songs are super deep and some songs just made us happy. The album doesn’t have one common theme, but it does have a very specific season of our lives recorded. We feel so excited about the album.”
