MUSIC NEWS- The Welsh trio The Joy Formidable have told MNN that they'll kick off a headlining North American tour in March, beginning on March 12 in San Francisco and wrapping up on April 2 in Toronto. On the run, the group will play major markets as Los Angeles at The Music Box on March 14 and New York's Terminal 5 on March 28. The band will be supported on all dates by A Place To Bury Strangers, and Exitmusic will open for both bands beginning in Minneapolis on March 19. Full tour itinerary is below.
The tour is the band's first news in the US and Canada following a breakout 2011 year, when the band released their debut full-length The Big Roar to considerable acclaim. The band ended 2011 with a bang, supporting the Foo Fighters for multiple dates along their east coast tour. The band performed on CBS' The Late Show With David Letterman, NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly, and Conan. 2011 also found the band appearing with their new song "Endtapes" as the opening track on The Twilight Saga: Breaking Down Part 1 Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.
