U.S. Tour Echoes Bunnymen’s Early Albums

Echo & The Bunnymen have announced dates for a spring North American tour featuring nightly back to back performances of the post-punk band’s debut and sophomore albums in their entirety.

The trek follows a sold-out United Kingdom tour that also featured Echo & The Bunnymen’s debut, 1980’s Crocodiles, and follow-up album, 1981’s Heaven Up Here.

The North American shows kick off May 9 at Paradise Rock Club in Boston. Dates are booked through a May 22 gig at House Of Blues in Anaheim, Calif.
