Chicago duo Whitney are bringing their Light Upon The Lake 10th Anniversary Tour to North America this spring and summer, performing the era-defining album in full, as well as fan favorites from their back catalogue. The run kicks off at Kilby Block Party in Salt Lake City, and includes stops at The Castro Theatre in San Francisco, The Wiltern in Los Angeles, Brooklyn Steel, and a two-night homecoming at Chicago's Thalia Hall.
Released in 2016 to wide critical praise, Light Upon The Lake was called "a confident and effortless record that sounds as if it has always existed" by The Guardian, while Pitchfork awarded it "Best New Music," calling it "warm, simple and profoundly enjoyable rock'n'roll record."
Reflecting on the record's legacy, the band shares:
"..The Lake came out 10 years ago. 10 years ago our community in Chicago was a beaming, nurturing, sometimes messy picture of young adulthood. Our friends provided couches and floors when we desperately needed them. Critical ears and valuable feedback when we were struggling to write throughout winter 2015. Encouragement (and residual panic) as we played our first few live shows around the city - and unwavering support as that live show eventually took us away for months at a time. It's cliche but there was a chosen family that quite literally stepped in and kept us afloat and clearheaded throughout the journey of writing LUTL and I think that's what I'm bound to remember another 10 or 20 years from now. Thank you to anyone and everyone whose lives have been touched by this record in the last decade. We'll see you soon <3."
