Killer queens

Chairlift moves from clubs to arenas next month.  The Brooklyn pop trio follows tours across North America supporting YACHT, Sebastian Tellier and Peter, Bjorn and John, with an opening stint on The Killers tour.

Following the success of the band's indie label-released debut, "Does You Inspire You," which was bosted by an iPod commercial featuring their song "Bruises," Chairlift signed to Columbia Records, which reissued a remixed and mastered "Does You Inspire You," with two new tracks, "Dixie Gypsy", and "Le Flying Saucer Hat", both of which were originally intended for the debut.

The band will also be hitting the summer festival circuit, performing at this year's Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, All Point West and Lollapalooza. Dates below.
