After Unknown Mortal Orchestra get done closing out the year with their world tour, Ruban Nielson and the band will tour North America alongside Lower Dens early next year. Find those dates below.
Nielson has also shared a rework of SILICON (aka Nielson’s brother Kody)track “Cellphone”. (Ruban and Kody are former Mint Chicks bandmates, and Kody contributed to Multi-Love.) Listen above. Correction (10/13 12:14 p.m.): An earlier version of this article stated that SILICON remixed a UMO track called “Cellphone”. “Cellphone” is a SILICON track, and the remix is by UMO.
Read “Love Is Strange”, our feature telling the story behind Multi-Love.
