After enjoying a relatively quiet end to 2009, the boys of grandiose rock quartet Kings of Leon are ready to get back to the grindstone. The band will embark on a summer amphitheatre tour this year starting in Atlantic City, NJ on June 5.
So far the only Canadian date is in Toronto on July 28, but there's a wide gap between shows in August so maybe the band just might plot more shows.
The last Kings of Leon album was 2008's break-out Only by the Night, which has sold nearly two million copies so far, as well as garnering the band a handful of Grammy wins, including Record of the Year, Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
