This past spring Animal Collective’s Panda Bear released Tomboy, the follow-up to Person Pitch on his own Paw Tracks label. Panda Bear recorded Tomboy at home in Lisbon, Portugal but this fall he will return to the U.S. for a series of dates, including two newly-confirmed New York City shows (October 1 at Webster Hall and October 2 at Brooklyn’s Masonic Temple). Panda Bear also has announced that he will release a new limited edition 4 LP Tomboy Box Set, on October 31. Limited to 5000 copies, it will feature the Tomboy album, the Tomboy single mixes, a variety of unreleased instrumentals and a cappella selections and “The Preakness,” accompanied by a 16-page art booklet. All profits will be directed to the American Cancer Society.
