This weekend the psychedelic folk-rock band heads down under for a round of Australian shows, with stops at the Corner Hotel in Richmond (March 27), Fremantle Park in Fremantle (March 28) and Virgin Mobile Metro Theatre in Sydney (March 30).

Just a few short weeks later, singers Alex Ebert and Jade Castrinos, along with the rest of the gang, are set to kick off the band’s headlining tour with an April 15 gig at Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, Calif.

Dates are on the books through Aug. 1’s performance at the Newport Folk Festival at Fort Adams State Park in Newport, R.I.

Fans can also catch the band at this year’s Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio, Calif. (April 17), Sasquatch! Music Festival in Quincy, Wash. (May 29), Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tenn. (June 11) and Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Colorado (June 19).

Additional headlining shows include The Fillmore in San Francisco (May 27), Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, British Columbia (May 31), Pabst Theater in Milwaukee (June 7) and Santa Fe Brewing Company in New Mexico (June 21).

Dawes is coming along for the fun to open all headlining dates.
