Ready To Faint
The lo-fi rockers will finish up the month of September with five shows in Deutschland before heading back the States to begin a two-month trek.
Their first U.S. stop will be at the Sokol Auditorium October 4, in the band’s hometown of Omaha, Neb.
Joining them on several October and November dates will be Beep Beep (October 4- November 21), and indie-rock experimentalists TV on the Radio (October 7 – November 21, except Oct. 8, 13, 15 & 27).
After touring the East – including a two-day stop to play New York’s Webster Hall October 15-16 – The Faint heads West, making one stop in Vancouver November 5 at Richard’s on Richards.
From there, they plan on spreading the music through Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona and Texas.
Their September 14 release, Wet From Birth, will be the band’s third release on Saddle Creek Records and their fifth release altogether.
The Faint is known forsurviving a number of personnel changes while helping plant the seeds that led to the explosive Omaha music scene which spawned the likes of Bright Eyes and the Saddle Creek label.
