Monsters of Folk Hitting The Road

07/27/2009
. (Filter) Monsters of Folk was born on the road five years ago when My Morning Jacket's Jim James, Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis, and singer/songwriter M. Ward toured together and regularly sat in on each other's sets. Now armed with the eclectic collaborations that make up their debut album, the illustrious quartet will reconvene for several Fall tour dates.

Throughout each show of the tour, the four members will be switching instruments and trading roles, maintaining the freewheeling and highly collaborative spirit of their work together thus far.

Pre-sale tickets for the US and Canada shows will be available beginning Tuesday, July 28, followed by the public on-sale beginning Friday, July 31. Tickets for the UK / EU shows will be available beginning Tuesday, July 27. For more info please visit www.monstersoffolk.com.
