Since the release of their 2011 debut album, Feel It Break, Canadian electronic band Austra have been hard at work preparing a record that would go above and beyond everything that their debut CD was. In anticipation of the release of their next album (out sometime this year), the group will be performing along with The xx at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York on Jan. 24 and Jan. 25. They’ll also be at the Electric Factory, in Philly, on Jan. 27. The group consists of Katie Stelmanis (vocals and keyboard), her former Galaxy bandmate Maya Postepski on drums, and bassist Dorian Wolf.
