The Barr Brothers Announce Canada/U.S. Tour Dates

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Feb 22, 2012

Montreal-based folk act the Barr Brothers have been hard at work touring since releasing their self-titled, Exclaim!-approved LP last fall, and the group have just announced another spell of dates between now and the summer.

The band have a few shows lined up in the immediate future, with a show taking place in their hometown today (February 22), and a couple of Ontario-area gigs to go down before a stop at this year's South by Southwest. A trip down the West Coast this April, meanwhile, will have the act stopping by Vancouver's St. James Community Hall, and there are several U.S. dates planned as well.

The summer will see the Barr Brothers return to BC for Crawford Bay's Starbelly Jam festival, and they'll also be in Alberta for the Calgary Folk Festival. You can check out the entire schedule below.
