Garage-rock stalwarts the Greenhornes have added a string of dates to their spring tour to coincide with another new release, which will follow their ★ ★ ★ ★ LP, issued in November.
The band shares the new dates and new release with local rock two-piece JEFF the Brotherhood: They'll issue new tunes together on a split 7-inch vinyl release via JEFF members Jake and Jamin Orrall's label, Infinity Cat. The split will be limited to 666 hand-numbered copies, and fans can only snag them at shows.
The bands' co-jaunt kicks off in Houston on May 5, wrapping in Oxford, Miss. on May 26. The Greenhornes tour will bring bassist Jack Lawrence and drummer Patrick Keeler home to Nashville, but Hacienda and local punk act PUJOL will open that show, set for April 16 at the Mercy Lounge. (Tickets for the 18-and-up Mercy Lounge show run $12 in advance and $14 on the day of show, and are on sale via Ticketweb.com.)
Get a live Greenhornes taste above, from a performance on FUEL TV's The Daily Habit. (On keys there is another Nashvillian: Mark Watrous, who's also played with Keeler and Lawrence's band the Raconteurs and Raconteurs singer/guitarist Brendan Benson, among others.)
