The East Coast is the lucky region, with a month-long trek stretching from Lake Buena Vista, Fla., Nov. 13 to a three-night stand at  and Eric Hilton, has teased an album for a February release, withholding the exact title and release date for the time being.

The group has made its progressive politics a centerpiece of the music, so no doubt they will have things to say in light the recent U.S. Presidential election.

The group are vocal supporters of the World Food Program humanitarian agency. “I think compassion for the hungry is universal … and yet the kind of hunger and poverty I’ve seen on my trips with WFP remains invisible to most people living in the developed world. It is so hard to imagine if you haven’t been there,” Garza said on the WFP website. “Eric and I want to help make people aware. We’re convinced that once they understand more about this kind of suffering, they’ll want to help.”
