Dirty Projectors Plot 2027 Tour, Drop New Song
David Longstreth will perform solo sets across North America and Europe
Dirty Projectors are making moves ahead of the new year. For starters, David Longstreth ’s band have signed to Joyful Noise; launched their own imprint, Well-Tempered Zealot; and are sharing a new single, “Jumbotron.” What’s more, Longstreth has planned an extensive solo trek in 2027, beginning in North America next spring before heading to Europe later in the summer. Check out the new song and the full list of tour dates below.
Describing the backstory of “Jumbotron,” Longstreth said,“I was thinking about the big screen and the small screen. The big tent and the kind of tent you can make in the living room with a couple couch cushions and a blanket or two. Life and entertainment; attention and volume; focus and detail; quality and value. Listen to the song!”
The most recent group effort from Dirty Projectors was their five-EP run in 2020, including Flight Tower EP . Since then, Longstreth was commissioned to write Song of the Earth , a major piece for a large ensemble, which came out digitally last year. The band’s last full-length album was 2018’s Lamp Lit Prose .
