TOMORA Announce 'Celebration' EP
(IC) After a blistering summer of festival gigs from Coachella to Fuji Rock, TOMORA (aka AURORA and Tom Rowlands from The Chemical Brothers) return with CELEBRATION - a brand new, 5- track EP to be released via Capitol Records digitally on October 16th and physically on November 27th on standard 12" black vinyl, special marbled vinyl, and CD.
A propulsive, euphoric rush, "Celebration" pairs a driving electronic pulse and hypnotic, building production with AURORA's unmistakable, ethereal vocals. It's a track that feels both immediate and expansive, channeling the duo's psychedelic dance sensibilities into something made for collective release.
Of the EP, TOMORA says: "Celebration is a privilege. Celebration is a person. Celebration is a funeral and celebration is a ritual. It's human nature. And it's a human need. We should all be celebrated, as real human beings."
CELEBRATION was recorded by the duo at RAR Studios in Sussex and features two wildly different versions of "Celebration," as well as the previously released 10-minute version of "IN A MINUTE," an expanded take on the original track from their debut album COME CLOSER. Released earlier this year, COME CLOSER received widespread critical praise from the likes of The New York Times, NPR, Stereogum, Billboard, and more.
The new single arrives alongside the announcement of TOMORA's first East Coast headline show, taking place at Brooklyn Paramount in New York on March 24, 2027. The newly announced date follows the duo's acclaimed run of intimate live shows earlier this year. NME hailed their London show as "a fully-rounded dancefloor-smashing experience," while 1883 Magazine dubbed it "triumphant." The New York show joins TOMORA's growing international live tour dates, which will see the duo perform across Asia, the UK, and Europe before heading to North America in 2027.
