Following their reissue release party in Toronto on July 22, the band have lined up six additional dates throughout Canada that will take place in September and October. Tour stops include Kitchener, London, Kingston, Ottawa, Calgary and Edmonton.

The additional dates will see founding members Rob Taylor (bass/lyricist) and Ian Blurton (guitar/vocals) joined by Bernard Maiezza (keyboards) and Blue Rodeo's Glenn Milchem (drums). You can find the freshly added dates in the band's tour itinerary below.
