fIREHOSE launch tour and new compilation

fIREHOSE will kick off their first tour in 18 years next month. To coincide with the launch of the tour, the band will release a compilation titled lowFLOWS: The Columbia Anthology '91-'93. The limited edition two disc set features select tracks from the band's two Columbia releases (1991's Flyin' The Flannel and 1993's Machinery Operator) plus some rare and previously unreleased material from that era. The set drops April 3rd and you can pre-order it now here. As far as brand new music from fIREHOSE goes, Mike Watt recently told Rolling Stone that nothing is planned right now, but it's a possibility for sometime down the road. Read Watt's full interview with Rolling Stone here.

Meanwhile Watt's will release a book/photographic memoir titled Mike Watt: On And Off Bass in May. Read more about the book here.
