Monsters of Folk (the supergroup featuring Jim James, M. Ward, Conor Oberst, and Mike Mogis) have just announced a fall tour titled “An Evening with Monsters of Folk”. The dates will begin around the time their debut album is released with currently 16 North American and 8 European shows. Be sure to catch these artists as the show will more than likely be something very special. The group formed while on a tour a few years ago and promised to get together to release an album under the name Monsters of Folk. Below is a note fromMonstersofFolk.com:
AT EACH SHOW, THE GROUP WILL DONATE $1 FROM EVERY TICKET SOLD TO A LOCAL CHARITY. AN EXCLUSIVE PRE-SALE FOR MONSTERS OF FOLK FANS BEGINS ON TUESDAY, JULY 28TH, WITH TICKETS GOING ON-SALE TO THE PUBLIC BEGINNING FRIDAY, JULY 31ST.
