Caribou Kicks Off North American Trek, Drops Tour EP
Dan Snaith is saying goodbye (again) to Melody Day and hello again to you, rumbling electro psych-pop fan, as he sets off on the North American leg of Caribou's massive fall tour. The roadshow, which begins in earnest tonight (September 28) in Hamilton, Ontario, finds Dan and his Caribou assemblage taking the stages of this continent for nearly 45 consecutive melody days, performing all the while with Born Ruffians, and making nice with Battles, Miracle Fortress, and Dirty on Purpose along the way. Peer through the kaleidoscope/down the rabbit hole/through the looking glass of your choice, then head to the stops after the jump.
Might want to peer under the couch cushions too and scrounge up some change to buy the latest Caribou tour EP, which Dan has been selling on the road. Depicted above and tracklisted just after the jump, it includes one 30-minute Snaith DJ mix and six exclusive tracks. Score!
