Chromeo Collaborating With Hall and Oates!
Sure, Chromeo are geeked to open for the Beastie Boys on a handful of their upcoming Canadian dates. Who wouldn't be? But that's nothing compared to the other piece of news coming from the Montreal electroids today.
The duo will apparently be working with throwback pop soulsters/unlikely indie stars Hall and Oates on the veteran duo's forthcoming LP. Sez a press release, "Indeed, Chromeo's idols Hall and Oates have asked them to collaborate with them on their upcoming record! Needless to say, the gentlemen are giddy like schoolchildren to be given this opportunity."
Idols! Sweet talk from the Tender lads. Anyway, that's happening, eventually.
In addition to the Beasties dates next week, Chromeo have shows all over the place, from Miami to Moscow, all the way until December.
