He’ll be doing two sets per night – one as Sage Francis with a live band, the other with Non-Prophets and a CD player. Grand Buffet will be opening all shows, and Mac Lethal is also reportedly accompanying.

The packed itinerary stretches from February 5 to March 19, with more than 35 shows in at least 25 states confirmed. A stop at San Francisco’s Noise Pop 2004 festival is on the bill for February 28.

Last year, Sage Francis did two full tours of the U.S., in addition to a summer stretch in Europe with Anticon representatives Sole and Themselves. He also became the first hip-hop act signed to Epitaph Records, and released the Non-Prophets album – Hope – on Lex, a subsidiary of Warp Records.

He’s planning to have a new live disc and his fourth rarities compilation ready for sale on the Fuck Clear Channel Tour. Both discs will be pressed on his own Strange Famous Records.
