ANDREW BIRD HEADING OUT ON TOUR WITH LONEY DEAR

Posted by Brian Shultz on 19-Nov-08 @ 01:43 PM

Andrew Bird has announced a month's worth of tour dates for next year, with Loney Dear accompanying in support.

Dosh will take Loney Dear's spot on the first date, at New York City's Carnegie Hall.

Bird will release his next album, Noble Beast, January 27th, 2009 on Fat Possum. He released the Soldier On EP earlier this year on Grimsey, and prior to that, 2007's Armchair Apocrypha on Fat Possum.

Loney Dear will be supporting Dear John, coincidentally due out the same day as Noble Beast--but on Polyvinyl. Their last was 2006's self-released Sologne, though Sub Pop reissued 2005's Loney, Noir in 2007.
