Caribou announces new tour dates

Fresh from a tour that hit both Japan and Australia, Daniel Snaith is taking his musical-ego Caribou around Europe and North America. Announced via Myspace, this multi-month tour will include previous live band members Ryan Smith, Brian Weber and Andrew Lloyd, as well as opening act Fuck Buttons.

Snaith hasn’t stopped working since the release of 2007’s Andorra, spending the latter part of the year touring all over the U.S., Canada and Western Europe. Looks like Caribou is repaying fans for waiting patiently since 2005’s Milk of Human Kindness where Snaith took time from his music to finish his Ph.D. in Mathematics at Imperial College, University of London.
