Handsome Furs and CNN Partner for “Indie Asia”

In perhaps the ultimate sign that indie music has officially gone mainstream, Montreal husband and wife synthsters the Handsome Furs have teamed up with CNN to make Indie Asia, a short documentary of their recent tour in China. The four part series (and counting…) is a revealing look at a couple very much in love with music, with travel and with each other. We remember when Dan Boeckner and his wife Alexei Perry emerged from the rubble of Wolf Parade’s (Boeckner’s other band) explosive debut, and were fighting to be known as more than just a WP side project. We have a feeling this might do the trick. Watch the first part of the series below, and the rest right here.
