Winnipeg experimental folk pop unit Royal Canoe spent much of February and March on the road in support of the recently released Extended Play, and they've now announced that they will once again be hitting the road in North America.

The 13-date outing will last for most of May and will include eight Canadian shows that stretch as far east as Montreal and as far west as Vancouver. There are also a few U.S. gigs, so check out the schedule below.

A press release promises, "The band's enveloping live show features four vocalists, double-drummers, guitar, bass and a stack of analog synths, pounding, pulsing and caressing the listener into submission."
