FUTURE HISTORY

****CANADIAN TOUR-SPRING 2013********

Catch Future History in your city as they embark on a two month long Canadian tour starting March 1st in Toronto. Dates will be posted in the coming weeks.

There is an undeniable intensity in Future History's live performance that continuously captivates audiences. It is the addition of non-traditional elements that make their music so unique; Glockenspiel, Vessel Drums, Stylophone, Live Looping, Samples and a Cajon (a wooden box) are just a few of the ingredients they combine to create their distinct sound.

Loss:/self was recorded in Montreal, New York (stranded for 3 days, recording during a Hurricane) and various places around Canada.
