Dr. Dog, a Philadelphia based indie-rock band that has garnered comparisons to a little group named The Beatles, has announced new tour dates through the summer and into the fall. Phew, that's better.

The Philly fellas will be traversing the country in support of their new album, Fate, which hits stores July 29. Along the way, they'll share festival stages with acts that range from Method Man to the Disco Biscuits to Okkervil River to The Black Keys to Cat Power. (And they recently ended a month long tour with Wilco. These boys are on fieya!)

Dr. Dog has plans to announce an October European tour at the end of May, so those in the old country should keep their eyes out for that.
