“Noah Lennox's favorite animal is (unsurprisingly) the panda bear. In the late '90s, he was inspired to take on the musical moniker Panda Bear after drawing a panda character for the artwork of his first album which he recorded in his Baltimore bedroom. He's carried on the theme by wearing black-and-white ursine costumes and masks on stage as part of the tripped-out electronica band, Animal Collective. As a solo artist, Panda Bear is a skilled craftsman of avant-garde psychedelic pop and tonight at the Fox, listen out for tunes from his latest album, Tomboy. Expect it to be playful, a little weird, and definitely off-the-charts awesome.”

Near the end of 2010, Panda Bear (aka Noah Lennox of Animal Collective) will release his fourth full-length album, Tomboy. To say the disc is highly-anticipated would be a slight understatement. After the crowning glory of his previous solo album, 2007's Person Pitch (which not only topped Pitchfork's Album of the Year charts but also ranked in the top ten of their Albums of the Decade), Panda Bear reconvened his Animal Collective brethren and followed it up with 2009's Merriweather Post Pavilion, which also found its rightful place atop innumerable magazine and blog polls come year's end.
