The National Return to Canada on Another North American Tour

News Sep 12 2011

By Gregory AdamsIt's been over a year and a half since moody Brooklynites the National released their celebrated High Violet album, but the band are still plenty pumped to promote the disc. Following the traditional release and its subsequent deluxe edition, the band will be taking the tunes out on the road again later this fall for a short string of dates.

Along the way, the quintet will play three Canadian dates. The trip kicks off November 29 at Vancouver's Orpheum Theatre, and the following week they'll hit up both Toronto and Montreal. The jaunt will be capped by a four-night stand at New York's Beacon Theatre. You can check out the tour schedule below.
