Includes encore appearance on Colbert
Report.

The Apples In Stereo’s rarities/B-sides collection Electronic Projects
For Musicians (Yep Roc/Simian/Elephant 6) gets some o’ the proverbial tour
support next month. July 18 marks the start of a three-week tour for the
Apples, and it will include a special musical performance on Comedy Central’s “The Colbert
Report.”

 

“This marks the first time Colbert has invited a musical guest to return for
an encore performance,” crowed the band — not unjustifiably — in  a press release. Electronic Projects for
Musicians contains the viral phenomenon “Stephen, Stephen,” a
track written by Robert Schneider in honor of Stephen Colbert and performed on
The Colbert Report’s 2006 series finale.
