Tokyo Police Club to play live on MTV

TOKYO POLICE CLUB will play live on MTV's F'N MTV Friday, July 25, performing "Graves" from its acclaimed debut album Elephant Shell. TOKYO POLICE CLUB's live performance on F'N MTV marks a logical progression from previous performers and obvious TPC peers Lil Wayne, Maroon 5 and Snoop Dogg, and will school the show's audience as to why the Newmarket Ontario quartet is "poised to be the biggest Canadian export since Molson" (ROLLING STONE).

Prior to the F'N MTV live performance, TOKYO POLICE CLUB returns to its native Canada this weekend for the Summersonic and Rogers Picnic festivals, while the remainder of July and August finds the band making its way through Australia, Japan and London.

TOKYO POLICE CLUB will continue its relentless touring regimen with another string of U.S. dates beginning September 8 in Baltimore and featuring headline dates at the likes of Los Angeles' Henry Fonda Theater, as well appearances at the Street Scene, Treasure Island and Voodoo Festivals.

More dates will be announced as they are confirmed.
