Yo La Tengo Sets Winter-Spring Gigs

St. Louis, Dallas, Knoxville, Nashville and Jersey City are just some of the cities that will bask in the brilliance of Yo La Tengo when the indie band embarks on its 2016 road trip.

Having recently released “Stuff Like There,” a mixture of cover songs and new originals, Yo La Tengo is fattening up its travel plans.  The new dates are in addition to the group’s fall run going on now.
