Philadelphia psychedelic indie rockers Dr. Dog have a pretty solid track record of putting out good music; their last two albums, 2008’s Fate and last year’s Shame, Shame, were both CoS Top Star earners. So when word comes that there’s a tour approaching, you’re damn sure we mark it in our iCal. Following a handful of previously announced dates with Bright Eyes, which begin August 30th in Providence, RI, Dr. Dog will return to the road for a fall jaunt.
The post-Bright Eyes dates kick off at the WHYY Connections Festival in the group’s hometown of Philly. They’ll also have spots at the HFStival in Maryland and the inaugural Orlando Calling Festival as they tour throughout November. Knoxville, TN will play home to their last scheduled gig on the 16th. Ticketing information can be found on the band’s website.
But that’s not all. Dr. Dog’s label, ANTI-, insists that a new album will drop sometime early next year, so stay tuned for more information. In the meantime, check out the band’s current itinerary below, along with a live version of “Nobody Knows Who You Are” featuring footage from two years of touring.
