Wexner Center Announces Girls/Dum Dum Girls and Owen Pallett Shows For April

"Oh, I wish I had a boyfriend..." If you weren't humming the tune for "Lust For Life" from San Francisco indie rock duo Girls for the last half of 2009, you experienced the year all wrong. The band released their debut disc, conveniently titled Album, to widespread critical praise and have built a band and sizable fanbase from their time on the road over the last year. This Spring they will headline a show on April 6th at the Wexner Center Performance Space with noise pop band Dum Dum Girls. Tickets go on sale this Friday. 

Filling the Performance Space a week later on April 13th will be the incredible Canadian violinist and singer-songwriter Owen Pallett (formerly known as Final Fantasy), who will bring his dazzling brand of baroque pop to Columbus audiences in support of his third full-length album, Heartland, released last month. Tickets for that show also go on sale on February 5th. 

Check out tunes from all three artists below and if you haven't picked up tickets for the The xx and jj, also playing the Wexner on April 5th, you must do so immediately.
