The Wallflowers have tacked more shows onto their upcoming summer road trip, extending the US trek through September, and announced plans for a new best-of album that will hit stores in June.
Slated to kick off June 16 in Anaheim, CA, the three-month outing has an additional nine dates since last check, stretched between the East Coast and the South. The Grammy-winning rock group will finish up the 34-city summer run Sept. 6 in Fort Worth, TX. Details are below.
Though the Jakob Dylan-led outfit has no new material to push, the rockers are celebrating the June 16th release of "A Collection: 1996-2005," a retrospective set of 14 Wallflower hits, culled from their 1996 hit album, "Bringing Down the Horse," through the band's most recent release, 2005's "Rebel, Sweetheart." Two previously unreleased tracks--"Eat You Sleeping" and "God Says Nothing Back"--are also part of the album's track list.
Dylan recently launched his own solo career, releasing his debut, "Seeing Things," last summer. The mostly acoustic album was recorded in producer Rick Rubin's Hollywood Hills home studio and produced by the music-industry legend.
The Wallflowers became mainstream radio favorites with their T-Bone Burnett-produced studio effort, "Bringing Down the Horse," which spawned the hits "One Headlight," "6th Avenue Heartache" and "The Difference."
