Eels are not only returning with a new album, but they will also be launching a world tour on Valentine's Day. The tour will kick off on February 14 in Santa Ana, California, and will include dates across the United States, Canada, the U.K. and Europe. The tour will wrap up on April 24 in Paris, France The tour is in support of their new album 'Wonderful, Glorious,' which will be released on February 5 by E Works/Vagrant Records. Mark Oliver Everett (aka E), EELS recorded Wonderful, Glorious at Everett's new Los Feliz, CA studio. Dubbed "The Compound," the new space invigorated Everett's writing process. "It was exciting," he says, "it filled me with hope for limitless possibilities. And I realized I'd had a similar feeling when I first put the band together for the last two tours." The band, which features guitarists The Chet and P-Boo, bass player Koool G Murder and drummer Knuckles, all had a hand in the writing of Wonderful, Glorious. "The only rule I had was 'let's try it,'" says Everett. "If anyone in the room had an idea, I'd say 'let's try it.'"
