Dirty Projectors Plot 2027 Tour, Drop New Song

Dirty Projectors have signed to Joyful Noise, launched their own imprint, Well-Tempered Zealot, and released the new single “Jumbotron”. David Longstreth has also announced an extensive solo tour for 2027, with North American dates in spring and European shows later in the summer.

Longstreth says the song reflects on contrasts such as big and small screens, attention and detail, and entertainment and life. The tour begins at the Big Ears Festival in Knoxville on 2 April and includes 25 dates, ending in Berlin on 25 June; Otto Benson joins some North American shows. The band’s most recent group releases were five EPs in 2020, while its last full-length album was 2018’s *Lamp Lit Prose*.
