The Cautionary Tales of An Eels Tour

Eels isn’t planning on slowing down any time soon. In April the band will put out a new album, just over a year since the release of its latest LP, 2013’s Wonderful, Glorious. And in May the band is kicking off more than 40 dates in North America and Europe.  

The Cautionary Tales Of Mark Oliver Everett is due out April 22. Mark Oliver Everett is, of course, the frontman better known as simply E.
