Robyn to perform at Rams Head Live in February
Robyn announced new dates for her North American tour, which until now was scheduled to bypass the metropolitan area.
On February 1, she will perform at Rams Head Live.
The show is a pretty big get for Rams Head. She's no ten on Pitchfork or anything, but Robyn's new album triptych - "Body Talk Pts. 1 & 2" and "Body Talk" - have been nearly universally embraced. So much so she was even featured on an episode of "Gossip Girl," a blessing of mass appeal if there ever was one.
In the episode, Robyn sings "Hang with Me" while Blair argues with her mother over Chuck, and Serena flirts with Joan Holloway's husband, who I'm pretty sure was stationed in Vietnam. TV is so magic. (I also learned watching that clip that "One Tree Hill" is still on)
Robyn's new album, "Body Talk" was released Monday along with her new single, "Indestructible."
