Blackie & the Rodeo Kings Announce Canadian Tour

Last year, Blackie & the Rodeo Kings' Kings and Queens found the outfit sharing microphone duties with a number of women, including Roseanne Cash, Emmylou Harris and Serena Ryder. While details are still a little shaky, it sounds as if some of the guests on the 2011 LP will join the band onstage during their upcoming stretch of Canadian dates.

The act hit the road this November on a 13-date trip that will take them from Ontario to BC and back. The tour opener takes place November 7 at Orillia, ON's Opera House, and heads as far west as Vancouver's Vogue Theatre on November 27. The trip concludes December 1 in London, ON.

While specifics weren't given, the press sheet promises that contributors to Kings & Queens and "other close friends" will help out along the way. Other vocalists from Kings & Queens include Pam Tillis, Exene Cervenka, Lucinda Williams, Cassandra Wilson, Amy Helm, Janiva Magness, Mary Margaret O'Hara, Sam Phillips, Sara Watkins, Patti Scialfa and Holly Cole.
