Gayngs Offshoot Poliça Announce North American Tour, Share New Video

BY Gregory AdamsPublished May 29, 2012

Earlier this year, Gayngs members Channy Leaneagh and Ryan Olson delivered Give You the Ghost, their R&B-tinged debut disc as Poliça. A few months on from the release, the troupe have announced they'll be repping their collection of smoothed-out tunes until October.

While the bulk of the dates will find the act travelling around the U.S., Poliça will make their way into Canada for a couple of concerts this summer. First up is a stop at Montreal's Osheaga festival on August 3. The troupe will play a much more intimate venue on the West Coast, though, as they'll be perform at Vancouver's Biltmore Cabaret on August 16.

In other band news, Poliça just dropped a new vid for Give You the Ghost track "Wandering Star." The clip for the minimalist, Auto-tune assisted slow jam features a lot of interpretive dancing, body paint and free-spirited body rubbing. You can check it out below.
