Now before you get too excited, let me just go ahead and say that no, Bowerbirds don’t have a new album coming out. “Why tour, then?” you ask. “Once they get started, they don’t deviate much from established folksy style (not complaining here), so why break the perfect and natural progression of release-press-tour?”
We may not have the answer to that, but hey, we got dates, beginning with a spot in the Hopscotch Music Festival in Raleigh, NC (their hometown, though I’m not sure where exactly their snow-covered Airstream trailer is within the Research Triangle) with Public Enemy. And since there’s ostensibly no new material floating around, why don’t you give Upper Air (TMT Review) another spin?
