Great Lake Swimmers
S&SS faves Great Lake Swimmers have announced a world tour in support of their forthcoming release, New Wild Everywhere, which hits shelves on April 3 via Nettwerk. Before beginning a North American tour, the Toronto based folkies will tour Europe for two weeks starting on April 12 in London.
The North American leg of the tour will begin on May 1 at Lincoln Hall in Chicago. After playing Madison and Minneapolis, they will head to their native Canada for shows in Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver and Victoria. After a swing down through the West Coast, GLS will make their way east for shows in Washington DC (The Rock N Roll Hotel), Philadelphia (Johnny Brenda’s), New York City (The Bowery Ballroom) and Boston (The Middle East). The tour will conclude on June 2 with a hometown show at The Music Hall in Toronto.
