Scottish indie-folk band Frightened Rabbit have announced details of a tour that encompasses a fair portion of our blue planet. Kicking off in London on July 25th, the tour also features dates in Australia, a stop off at Lollapalooza, and then a more extensive road trip through Europe in August. Not content with that globetrotting spell, the band will then team up with Montreal rockers Plants and Animals for a US tour in October. It all ends with a flight back to Europe and an appearance at the Belle & Sebastian curated All Tomorrow’s Parties Festival on December 10th. Anyone else out of breath?
The band’s third album, The Winter of Mixed Drinks, was released in March 2010 to widespread critical acclaim. It broke the Top 10 in both the US and UK Independent Album Charts. The album was the second Frightened Rabbit record to produced by Peter Katis, who has also produced albums for Interpol and The National, amongst others.
Tickets for select North American dates are available over at Ticketmaster.
