Explosions in the Sky Extend 'The Wilderness' Tour, Add Canadian Dates

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Apr 4, 2016

Though triumphant Texan post-rock favourites Explosions in the Sky just released their The Wilderness album last Friday (April 1), they'll be taking the tunes out to more familiar show settings later this year. The band have just revealed a new leg of concert dates that will bring them on the road into the fall.

The outfit had already confirmed dates across the UK, the U.S., parts of Europe and Japan between April and July. The band have now added another couple of months' worth of dates, which start up in August and head deep into the fall.

As you'll see via the newly updated itinerary down below, Explosions in the Sky make it out to Vancouver's Commodore Ballroom on September 4 and will be out at Montreal's Metropolis Theatre on September 18.

Temporary Residence issued the band's The Wilderness last week. While the group had semi-recently worked on film scores for Prince Avalanche and Manglehorn, The Wilderness marks Explosions in the Sky's first "non-soundtrack" release since 2011's Take Care, Take Care, Take Care.
