Wussy Add US Dates to Forever Sounds Tour

Having returned from a successful UK tour leg (including a BBC6 radio session), Wussy resume their 2016 Forever Sounds tour with a string of US dates, including KEXP and Daytrotter sessions.

Wussy’s 2016 LP Forever Sounds (Shake It / Damnably) has been  featured in SPIN, Noisey, Stereogum, NPR, AV Club, Paste and more. Most recently, the band’s UK Record Store Day single “Ceremony” (Damnably) has been getting extensive BBC airplay since its April 22 release.
