The New York-based duo is touring in support of their debut full-length Secondhand Rapture, due May 14. Songs include “Hurricane” and their most recent single “Fantasy”.

A headlining mini-tour will start May 15Â with a sold-out show in New York City at Bowery Ballroom and will include stops in Philadelphia, Chicago, Columbus, Toronto and Montreal.
According to a press release, “Ms Mr’s live performances, which the The Village Voice deemed ‘intoxicating’, have created a media buzz around the band. Time Out New York described their style as ‘refreshingly sincere new-wave style mood pop.'”
Ms Mr has toured with Marina and the Diamonds and Grouplove. The band kicked off 2013 with two sold-out performances in their hometown at NYC’s Mercury Lounge and a sold-out performance at Los Angeles’ Echo.
