Even a blood infection won’t stop Lightspeed Champion from zipping around the world. According to his blog, Dev Hynes has been at his parent’s house recovering from a blood infection. “Abscess on my face, thank you on-going blood infection, I look like John Merrick,” Hynes writes.
Despite this setback, after some North American appearances in March, Lightspeed Champion is touring in Europe and will return to North America in June playing a few shows with Adam Green and Flowers Forever, which is the side project of Derek from Tilly & The Wall.
