Cigarettes After Sex are celebrating their album release week with a stop at Jimmy Kimmel Live! on July 10th to play a few tracks from their highly anticipated new album. The band will be playing the Jimmy Kimmel Concert Series Outdoor Stage for a live audience, promising an unforgettable performance. Fans can look forward to hearing new songs from X's, due this Friday, July 12th.
With X’s, Cigarettes After Sex finally takes center stage as not just one of today’s preeminent indie bands, but as one of the most globally accomplished acts across any genre, whose often unconventional path to superstardom has helped reshape the very definition of success for artists in the modern era.
Since the release of “Tejano Blue,” along with the announcement of X’s and the corresponding global arena tour, Cigarettes After Sex have racked up over 30M plays on the single. It was featured on 43 Spotify New Music Friday playlists, alongside a digital billboard in Times Square. They are currently the #241 most-streamed artist in the world on the platform, with over 24M monthly listeners. "Dark Vacay" has already racked up 13.5M plays and "Baby Blue Movie" was #5 on SiriusXMU's Download 15, also appearing on SXM AltNation's Advanced Placement twice.
The tour – which includes venues like Madison Square Garden, The Forum, the o2 Arena and more – is off to a tremendous start with sellouts in London, Warsaw, Sydney, Athens, Brussels, Lyon, Cape Town, Paris, Amsterdam, Singapore and Melbourne. In the states, dates in San Diego, Orlando, New York City and both nights in LA have sold out. Over 500k tickets have been sold internationally thus far and demand saw them adding extra shows in LA, London, Athens, Melbourne, and Sydney. The news spread quickly, with writeups in Stereogum, Consequence, Brooklyn Vegan, Pollstar, the NY Post and more.
Cigarettes After Sex's new LP, X's, is out Friday, July 12th via Partisan Records.
You can see the band live on their world tour starting this Fall. Tickets are on sale now. |
