Murder By Death hit the road today with mewithoutYou and also announced a fall headlining tour in support of their latest album, Good Morning, Magpie.The fall headlining club tour is set to begin September 10 in Urbana, Illinois and takes the band into Canada for three dates before finally wrapping in Newport, Kentucky on October 9.
"Being from a small town, we know that sometimes bands skip over the little cities in favor of bigger shows and more dough," said MBD's Adam Turla. "We wanted to play a few places we've never been to, and clubs we haven't played in years. Let's pack these rooms out, get drunk, and let our voices get hoarse from singing together. We will be joined every night on this tour by a new friend/cohort in music Scott Brackett (of Okkervil River) on piano, trumpet, accordion, percussion and backup vocals."
Today, August 3, Murder By Death embarks on a two-week tour supporting Philadelphia's mewithoutYou. Murder By Death will also be meeting fans and performing at a special in-store at Louisville's Ear X-tacy on Sunday, August 8 at 6pm.
