Library Voices Take 'Summer of Lust' on Canadian Tour

BY Alex HudsonPublished Jun 28, 2011

Library Voices have already declared this the Summer of Lust. So what happens when summer is over? Well, the Regina, SK-based power pop ensemble won't let the onset of cooler weather hold them back from bringing their Lust on an extensive cross-Canada tour.

The band will play a smattering of festival dates in the coming months before the tour begins in earnest. The tour proper goes from mid-September all the way to the end of October, starting on the West Coast and eventually ending up in Eastern Canada. Along the way, they will play a series of concerts with Tokyo Police Club member (and budding solo artist) Graham Wright, plus select dates with Dinosaur Bones and Yukon Blonde.

See the schedule below. And for the purposes of full disclosure the tour is being sponsored by Exclaim!

As previously reported, Summer of Lust is due out on August 23 via Nevado Records. Expect a video for the first single, "Generation Handclap," to come out soon. In the meantime, the new album track is streaming at the bottom of this page.
