Two great young rock bands, Japandroids and Cloud Nothings, are joining forces for a North American tour. Following a summer full of festival appearances for both bands, the autumn jaunt kicks off October 14th in Edmonton and runs through mid-November. Along the way, they’ll rock cities like Winnipeg, Halifax, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Detroit, and Nashville.
Japandroids will be supporting their third album, Near to the Wild Heart of Life, while Cloud Nothings will be playing songs from their excellent new release, Life Without Sound. Find both bands’ full tour schedules below.
