We’re excited to have Yo La Tengo join us for WXPN’s sold-out Free at Noon double-header this Friday with Bat for Lashes. While you’re getting psyched to see the performance at World Cafe Live (or hear it on the WXPN airwaves), get a taste of the sublime new material the Hoboken eclectic rock trio has in store. Fade is a great set of songs with expressive arrangements and low-key guitar tones reminiscent of the band’s 2003 album Summer Sun. It’s also streaming on Pitchfork until it’s January 15 release date. Listen to it here.
