Thomas Function, the Alabama band that considers itself part of an ongoing "rock-n-roll renaissance," begins its fall tour next week. The band's debut, Celebration, came out earlier this year (it's quite good, if we do say so ourselves), and the guys are looking forward to the November release of a 7". Below are the dates, along with TF's new "Filthy Flowers" video—be sure to check out the band's Sept. 25 performance at the Paste-sponsored showcase at ACL. (Speaking of which, if you're going to be in the Austin, Texas area on Sept. 25, you should RSVP for the party, which will also include performances from Mates of State, What Made Milwaukee Famous, Bobby Bare Jr., Dan Dyer and White Ghost Shivers. Snap!)
