B.A. Johnston Announces Canadian Fall Tour

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Aug 3, 2016

It looks as if beloved Canadian troubadour B.A. Johnston is getting ready to leave the Hammer again, having just announced a block of fall tour dates.

The moustachioed "dump bear" revealed his tour plans today (August 3) over Twitter, posting a link to a tour route and alerting fans that he may well be hitting their "rat town."
  While Johnston has a hometown show coming up at the end of the month, as part of Hamilton Beerfest, the tour officially kicks off mid-September. He begins out in Ontario, but has a number of dates spread out through that province, Quebec and the Maritimes all the way until the end of December.

If you're looking to hear the guy sing about an "Ikea Hotdog," or perhaps serenading you with the "Heat Bill Blues," you can find out all of the date and venue details for the tour down below.

Johnston's last LP was 2015's Shit Sucks.
