Brace yourself for a double dose of Canadian pop rock. Both Dear Rouge and Rah Rah have new albums to promote, and they will be supporting their release with a joint batch of fall tour dates.
The outing is a long one. It begins with a North American run that lasts for well over a month during October and November. This includes numerous Canadian shows across the Prairies, throughout Quebec and Ontario, and in the Maritimes. During this leg, Dear Rouge will serve as the headliners.
Then, in December, the groups will head to Europe for a couple of weeks. During this part of the tour, Rah Rah will take over as headliners. See the tour dates below, and take special note that a few select gigs feature either Dear Rouge or Rah Rah, not both.
Dear Rouge's album Black to Gold came out back in March on Universal (hence their portion of the tour being called the "Black to Gold Tour"). Rah Rah's Vessels, meanwhile, arrives on September 11 through Hidden Pony. Watch videos for songs from both albums at the bottom of this page.
