After a VERY successful 2009 that included the release of the critically acclaimed ‘If I Don’t Come Home, You’ll Know I’m Gone’, a cross-Canada ‘Bedrooms and Backstreets’ alternative spaces tour, a North American tour with Elliott Brood, and ‘A Documentary in Pieces’, a series of short films documenting their afforementioned B&B tour, the band has no intention of letting up in 2010. Their latest release topped numerous ‘best of 2009′ lists, which will hopefully keep them warm as the trek across the snowy terrain of the North. The tour starts January 22nd in Kingston at the Grad Club, heads out east, and then cuts all the way Nationwide and wraps up at the Olympic Village in Vancouver on February 25th.
Here’s the list of dates. Others are TBD, but I will keep you posted as they firm together. If you’re interested in covering the nearest show in any capacity, including interviews, contests, show reviews, features, etc, please just say the word.
