Alternative rock icons the Dandy Warhols will be hitting the
road this September, stopping first in Indianapolis before heading
off to Kansas City, Houston, Dallas, Austin, and Albuquerque.
The last stop of their tour will be at the Red Rocks Amphitheater,
where the band will be closing out the final day of Monolith
alongside Phoenix, among many others.
The dates follow a successful Fall 2008 North American tour supporting
…Earth To The Dandy Warhols…, the band’s sixth full-length and
first on their own label, Beat The World Records. The dates also
follow the release of The Dandy Warhols ARE Sound, the “Director’s
Cut” of 2003’s Welcome To The Monkey House. The Dandy Warhols ARE
Sound comes out July 14, 2009.
While the studio albums showcase their instrumental ability and
frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor’s lyrical witticisms, it’s live
where they seem most vibrant, and where they’re truly given the
space to explore their psychedelic and alternative pop roots.
Sweeping guitars and keyboards combine with melodic hooks to
create an experience that is both impressively expansive and
wholly entertaining.
Tickets go on-sale to the public this Saturday, June 27 (Indianapolis
on-sale 6/26, Monolith already on-sale), but the presale is already
running on www.dandywarhols.com and myspace.com/thedandywarhols.
All shows are all ages, and opening on each date will be neo-psychedelic
Spaghetti-Western band Spindrift, who released their record The West
on Beat The World in November 2008.
