The last time the Breeders went on tour, it was a different world. Things sure have changed, but some consistency is about to be restored to this chaotic world.
That’s right, the Breeders are going on tour for the first time in six years. On April 7, the Sisters Deal will release Mountain Battles on 4AD, and their European tour will launch on that very same day.
But fear not, non-European resident, because you will also have a shot at catching Kim and Kelley in action. The Breeders will play Toronto’s Canadian Music Week, Austin’s South by Southwest, and Indio, California’s Coachella. As they journey between Canada, Europe, Indio and Austin, the band will contend with some radical temperature shifts, but six years after they took a break, the Breeders should be all about endurance.
