So this is a tour. Junior Boys, whose So This Is Goodbye we kind of like (and which comes out September 12 on Domino Records), begin their previously reported tour tonight in Montreal with Cat Power/Lou Barlow collaborator Ensemble (aka Olivier Alary). The latter's self-titled debut comes out September 19 on FatCat.

After finishing the tour's North American leg at Chicago's Empty Bottle on October 8, the Boys will head over to the UK for some shows with Hot Chip. Electro-pop-o-riffic!
