Attention fans of mighty, swirling guitars -- the legendary Swervedriver has announced a North American tour! Alas, there isn't a Detroit date, however they will be playing March 15th at Pyramid Scheme in Grand Rapids. Tickets for the show go on sale Friday, November 21st at 10am. The full list of dates can be found at the very end of this post.
Swervedriver has been in the studio working on some new music, but so far official release details have not yet been announced. In an interview earlier this year, Adam Franklin told 50third and 3rd :
"At this point the album probably won’t come out until early 2015 although maybe we’ll release another single before the year is out."
And it looks like they're getting close according to a recent tweet:
What's happening? Mastering the album, that's what...
