Suit up. Mathematician bedroom (man)boy wonder Caribou has got two plus months of touring ahead of him come fall, and he's sharing the bill with… an indie rock band. Born Ruffians are a Toronto-based outfit with the same penchant for pre-pubescent warbling as many of their compatriots. Surprising choice after the contained ecstasy of Andorra's indie electro-fusion? Prolly not. Still, it's not hard to guess who'll be upstaging whom so long as Mr. Snaith translates his studio masterpiece onto the stage.
