Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip has added US dates to a North American tour supporting its latest album, "World Container."
The Hip got its road party started earlier this month by kicking off a leg of Canadian arena dates that will take the band through Feb. 8. The US trek launches Feb. 26 in Long Beach, CA, and wraps April 29 in Washington, DC. Along the way, the band will play three shows with The Who and perform a two-night stand at New York City's famed Irving Plaza. Details are listed below.
The Tragically Hip's current itinerary isn't the end of the road, according to its website, which says this is just the beginning of the band's 2007 plans.
"World Container," the Hip's 11th studio album in its more than 20-year career, was released in Canada in October and will hit stores in the US and elsewhere March 6. A handful of songs from the record are streaming at the band's MySpace page, as is the video for lead single "In View."
The new release follows 2005's "Hipeponymous," a 37-song, two-CD, two-DVD boxed set that includes a full-length concert DVD and a bonus DVD featuring 23 videos.
The Tragically Hip, which has won a dozen Juno awards since 1990, was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2005.
