The Dodos Hit The Road

by Emily Youssef

The Dodos kicked off a month-long tour over the weekend with Ruby Suns in support of their third album, Time To Die. The San Francisco-based band starts in California, making the rounds across the U.S. and even sneaking in a quick Canadian date in Vancouver.

So the title of the album is a bit of a downer, but they’ve gotten positive reviews from the likes of NPR and Pitchfork. Produced by Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, The Shins, Built to Spill), The Dodos promise that just because this record is more rock-based than their previous acoustic leanings, it doesn’t mean they’re growing up or anything silly like that.

Here Meric explains the man behind his finger-picking ways. Holly, are you out there?
