They will play the Workman’s Club on November 16.
New York duo Water From Your Eyes have announced the release of their upcoming album It's A Beautiful Place via Matador Records on August 22.
They also announced an accompanying North American and European headline tour, including a date in Dublin’s Workman's Club on November 16.
The band also released the lead single ‘Life Signs’, with a music video directed by the band's Rachel Brown. "Television has always been my biggest passion," comments Brown, "and this video was mostly conceived from my desire to experiment with the tropes of genre.
“But I also think the medium lends itself to the idea of fitting an infinite amount of universes into a little box you can keep in your living room,' she continues. "I wanted the video to encapsulate as many worlds as the song does and to express an entire lifetime within a short few minutes."

Commenting on the album’s themes, Water Form Your Eyes’ Nate Amos said: “It ended up being about time, dinosaurs and space. We wanted to present a wide range of styles in a way that acknowledges everything’s just a tiny blip.”
The duo recorded the bulk of It’s a Beautiful Place last summer, just as they have every other WFYE release: in Amos’s bedroom, under the watchful eye of a tattered Robin Williams poster from the Mork & Mindy era.
“Basically,” jokes Amos, “Robin is like a silent member of Water From Your Eyes.” But this time, much of the writing and recording were shaped around the dynamics of a full-blooded live group: “When you’re playing with a band you tend to write with one in mind - this was the first time I wrote anything for WFYE imagining us playing anywhere bigger than a basement”, he observes.
