NEWS: DIIV ANNOUNCE FULL SPRING TOUR FOR UK / EUROPE

After a successful 2015, which saw them not only finish up work on their highly anticipated second album, but also complete a mammoth stateside tour alongside No Joy and Sunflower Bean, Brooklyn-based DIIV are set to make a triumphant live return to UK and Europe this spring.

Recorded and mixed in various locations around Brooklyn throughout much of 2015, Is the Is Are is a 17-song double-album, intended to work with the moods and themes first explored by vocalist/songwriter Zachary Cole Smith on 2012’s critically acclaimed Oshin, but this time with an added nuance and depth. Dark and honest to a fault, recent singles lifted from Is the Is Are such as Dopamine and Bent (Roi’s Song) have only added to the bands blistering set and Cole Smiths distinct on-stage performance.

You can catch DIIV performing tracks from Is the Is Are this March and April, including a sold out date at Heaven in London on March 18th.
