John Hiatt announces Same Old tour dates

Following Paste's swim-trunks-clad editor-in-chief recently catching up with John Hiatt aboard a cruise, the veteran singer-songwriter has confirmed nationwide dates for his upcoming summer tour. Hiatt's new full-length album, Same Old Man, is set for a May 27 release.

And if a 30+ year career and being covered by the likes of Bob Dylan and Iggy Pop weren't enough, the Americana Music Association will bestow a Lifetime Achievement Award upon Hiatt this fall.
