Royksopp Plans Mini-Tour of States




The Norwegian chill-music duo known as Royksopp has announced that it will make its first-ever tour of the U.S. later this fall to support its upcoming album called The Understanding. Before the tour, however, the group will stage a three show mini-tour: July 13 in New York, July 15 in San Francisco July 17 in Los Angeles.

The new album is the follow-up to their debut called Melody A.M, which has sold more than 750,000 copies worldwide. That album is, without question, one of the best downtempo CDs of the past several years, and it's easily accessible.

The new 11-song project features instrumentals and several vocal tracks. It will be released on July 12.
