Owen Pallett has announced that he's completed some new music — and he's ready to give fans a glimpse of what he's been working on at an upcoming show.
 
Pallett will play Toronto's Great Hall on April 8, and the Polaris Music Prize-winning performer is promising a set of almost entirely new songs. He teased the fresh material on Twitter, revealing that while there won't be any synths involved, there will be guitar and violin. And as for sheets of distortion? "Oh, yes yes."
 

 
Tickets for the show are on sale now both online and at local retailers Rotate This and Soundscapes. Check out the Facebook event for full details and updates about the show.

UPDATE (3/1, 3:50 p.m. EST): Pallett has now revealed he will be debuting new material at a Hamilton show as well, along with several new dates in Asia. You can see his complete schedule below.

Pallett's last full-length album arrived with In Conflict back in 2014, though the Canadian musician has since contributed a film score to Anton Corbijn's Life, shared an Adult Swim single called "The Phone Call" and lent his talents to a compilation called Art Week 2016
