This month The Polyphonic Spree begins the 2nd Phase of their You and Me Tour with Phase 3 commencing in May. For Phase 2, the band will tour the West Coast whereas Phase 3 routes through the Midwest and East Coast. The tour is a big deal, particularly since the 21 member band hasn't toured in 4 years.
"The Polyphonic Spree are releasing one new song at a time via their own label, Good Records Recordings, in both digital and vinyl single formats. The band released their first new music since 2007 last fall with the song "Bullseye," initially via an interactive iPad app (designed by Academy Award-winning Moonbot Studios) and later via Good Records Recordings. "Bullseye" was followed by a holiday song, "It's Christmas," originally recorded during the 2003 sessions for the Spree's second album, "Together We're Heavy"; and most recently, the new single "What Would You Do?" Audio and video of all three songs is available at http://goodrecordsrecordings.com/"
