Double Experience are returning for their first cross-Canada tour since 2014. The band will be performing songs off their third full-length album, Unsaved Progress, including their recent single “The Glimmer Show,” a Destiny-themed rock anthem, which earned them accolades from the creators of the video game itself.
For the first time, Canadian fans will be treated to Double Experience‘s larger-than-life show; an event that begins before the band even takes the stage.
“On our last UK tour, we coordinated everything from Pokemon duels on Game Boys with our fans, Pokemon-themed drink specials, cosplay contests, and more,” explains vocalist Ian Nichols. “This fall, we’re embracing Pokemon GO and incorporating aspects of that into what happens offstage.”

Double Experience’s third studio album entitled Unsaved Progress was released on April 8, 2016, via their label Colfax Music. Taking the next step from their previous album – initially released exclusively on collectible trading cards, the band utilizes classic video-game inspired artwork and packaging. The album was brought to life with the help of Al Jacob and Kit Walters (HE IS LEGEND) at Warrior Sound in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
