With the release of their Group Therapy album just around the corner, UK dance music titans Above & Beyond embark on their extensive thirty-four-date North American leg of the Group Therapy World Tour. Taking in all the major US cities, Above & Beyond will hit famed venues such as Chicago’s House of Blues, Toronto’s Guvernment, and sold-out shows at New York’s Best Buy Theatre on Broadway and two nights at LA’s Hollywood Palladium.
Above & Beyond’s latest single from Group Therapy, Thing Called Love, follows the widespread success of the trio’s recent crossover smash Sun & Moon – a track playlisted by BBC Radio 1. Again featuring the distinctive vocals of Richard Bedford, Thing Called Love is a powerful song-driven anthem that upholds Above & Beyond’s unique ability to marry innovative electronic grooves with stirring, thoughtful lyrics that are the antithesis of throwaway club tracks. In keeping with the stadium-sized sound of Sun & Moon, new Radio and Club mixes from Above & Beyond blend chunky electro basslines with forward-thinking, euphoric melody drops. Sitting neatly outside genres, Thing Called Love is another festival-ready anthem with meaning from Above & Beyond. Already played on Scott Mill’s Ready For The Weekend show on BBC Radio 1, Above & Beyond featuring Richard Bedford Thing Called Love will be released on May 29.
Above & Beyond’s highly anticipated second artist album Group Therapy will be out June 2011 on Ultra Music.
