At the beginning of the summer, Menomena embarked on their first ever European tour. Now, they're already returning to the continent in September and October-- just before they head back to North America for their previously reported dates here.

But Menomena have two shows before either tour kicks off. The first is August 15 in Mexico City, and the second is on September 1 at Seattle's Bumbershoot festival, where the PDX trio will be joined onstage by a choir. Smells like a party!
