Yeasayer Plot Massive North American Tour

BY Josiah HughesPublished Aug 12, 2008

Brooklyn indie psych gospel quartet Yeasayer took the indie world by storm when they released their acclaimed All Hour Cymbals full-length late last year. Still, it’s taken the band a while to book the headlining tour they deserve, and now it’s time to play catch-up.

Starting with a handful of European dates, the band will spend the rest of 2008 traversing the globe, hitting up everywhere from Austin City Limits in Texas to their first-ever trip to Australia. Canadian dates include stops in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.

The band are tentatively slated to start work on their sophomore LP early next year.
