In 2010, both Cults and Magic Kids came out of nowhere and released amazing indie pop gems. The Magic Kids hit us in the form of the 1960s-inspired Memphis while Cults got noticed (and signed to Columbia records!) for a killer three-song 7”. And now! The two bands are teaming up for a tour this spring. Good vibes and smiles are sure to abound. Here’s the Magic Kids dates. (Some sans-Cults)
