Fat Possum Records is excited to announce that the Walkmen will be heading out on a North American tour in support of their new album Heaven. Following dates with Florence & The Machine this summer, as well as appearances at Lollapalooza, Osheaga and Outside Lands, the tour takes the band from the John Anson Ford Amphitheater in Los Angeles on September 12th to Royale in Boston on October 19th. Presale tickets will be available at thewalkmen.com starting on Wednesday, June 6th.
Before heading out on tour, the Walkmen will play a rare, intimate hometown show at the Bowery Ballroom on Wednesday, June 6th at 9pm EST to celebrate the release of Heaven. The band has partnered with Spotify to provide a worldwide live stream of the concert, filmed by La Blogotheque, creators of the much-lauded "Take Away Show." New York City’s independent music retailer Other Music exclusively provided the first 150 purchasers of Heaven with a ticket to the Bowery Ballroom performance, while the remaining tickets were made available to the public on June 1st, selling out immediately. Prior to the Bowery show, The Walkmen will perform on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, June 5th.
