Louche post-punk outfit French Police (actually from Chicago, and deffo not cops) are out on a two-month U.S. tour that swoops into Orlando this week. The exact date is the day after Halloween, noted here for those of you who need one last fix of Spooky Season stimulation before it’s all Mariah Carey Xmas jingle-jangle all the time.

The quartet released their newest single, “Libra,” just ahead of the tour, and it’s got a welcome lithe sensuality, in contrast to many of their peers’ leaden dourness. French Police understands, like Sisters of Mercy, you need some boogie with your brooding.

So come surrender yourself to the proper authorities. 

6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 1, The Social, 54 N. Orange Ave., foundation-presents.com, $22.
