Son Volt has a mapped a summer headlining tour that follows the release next month of "American Central Dust," the group's latest studio album.
Following the band's previously announced jaunt with Cowboy Junkies--now expanded to 15 cities during July, kicking off with a July 8 appearance in Denver--the group will mount a headlining tour behind the new album beginning Aug. 7 in Newport, KY. The trek runs through the end of August, concluding Aug. 27 in Minneapolis. Details are included below.
Son Volt's forthcoming new album, "American Central Dust," is due in stores July 7. The record represents the first fruit of the group's deal with its new label, Rounder.
"Rounder has shown a long term commitment to music forms, like folk and blues, that I have a lot of respect for," bandleader Jay Farrar said in a press release. "Going with Rounder has been a kind of a full circle continuum--the first Rounder person I met with was instrumental in booking Uncle Tupelo gigs years ago."
Son Volt's previous studio effort, "The Search," surfaced in 2007.
