King Khan and the Shrines Announce North American Dates, Play Toronto, Montreal

Published Jul 29, 2010

Good news for fans of Montreal-born rock revivalist King Khan - the man has apparently recovered from his recent break-up fiasco with fellow garage rock wildman Mark "BBQ" Sultan and will be hitting the road with King Khan and the Shrines for some North American touring this fall.

The tour will feature enough '60s-influenced psych/garage rock to keep fans of any of Khan's various musical outlets happy. Hopefully, the band will make it through the tour instead of ending up in jail, so all the cities, including Toronto and Montreal, on the scheduled ten-date run can have a chance to check out the live spectacle.

King Khan and the Shrines' last release was 2008's best-of The Supreme Genius of King Khan and the Shrines, which came out on Vice Records.
