Kimbra is touring in support of the U.S. release of Vows, which landed in stores in May on Warner Bros. The artist worked on the album for more than three years before it was released in Australia during summer 2011. Kimbra recorded extra tracks in Los Angeles for the album’s U.S. release and included “Warrior” featuring Foster The People’s Mark Foster and A-Trak.

Right now you have two different tours for which to catch Kimbra in action. Her dates on the Foster The People tour stretch into the first week of July and include stops in Montreal, Detroit, Boston, Chicago, Oregon, Washington, California, Utah, Arizona and Nevada.

Kimbra’s headlining adventure begins in late September in British Columbia. With The Stepkids supporting, the tour runs across the continent playing Canada and U.S. markets. Last stop on the newly released routing is Toronto in late October.
