June 4th at the Troubadour with Local Natives (SOLD OUT!)

"These lads melt together a peachy knack for warm and fuzzy, squiggly psych-pop, complete with whistling and Morricone-like druthers."  - URB ("Next 100" issue)

In two short years, Quinn Walker, Austin Fisher, Pan and Brian Aiken, aka Suckers, emerged with a sound and aesthetic that grew them a local following from their homebase at the Glasslands Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. With the members often simultaneously playing multiple instruments per song and singing, shouting and chanting in unison, the group’s early shows (often featuring the band in face paint and costumes) were wild affairs featuring primal beats, future sounds, trumpet blasts, religious truths and the sheer enjoyment of three one-man bands playing together.  The trio knew they were missing something or someone and added drummer/keyboardist Brian Aiken, fresh off a year abroad in Hungary. With Brian on board, the band hit their stride, packing local venues and sharing bills with friends and kindred spirits in Yeasayer, MGMT, Bear In Heaven, Chairlift and Real Estate.

Those same audiences - and a nationwide mass of new converts - found themselves fully enmeshed in Suckers’ lush tapestry of joyous pop, style and imagination on their self-titled debut EP (produced by Yeasayer’s Anand Wilder), released in April of 2009. The EP - and its hit single, “It Gets Your Body Movin’” - launched them to global acclaim via outlets such as Rolling Stone, NME, NPR, Nylon, Under The Radar, Stereogum, Interview and many more. 

Wild Smile comes out June 8th on Frenchkiss Records.
