Back in September, Man Man vocalist Ryan Kattner (aka Honus Honus) dished the dirt on the band's upcoming follow-up to 2008's Rabbit Hands. Though he shared the album's tentative title, Live Fantastic, not much was shed beyond that. Unfortunately, with neither the release date nor the album info unveiled, that still seems to be the case, but the group's recent tour announcement could mean that Man Man are ready to test the new tunes on the road.
While the skronk poppers will be playing one show this month as part of this year's South by Southwest conference in Austin, TX, Man Man's spring tour will actually kick off in late April in Carrboro, NC. Canadian fans looking to get wild with the experimental outfit will be treated to shows in Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal. You can check out all the dates below.
With dates still being a little ways off and a press release stating the band are "nearing completion" on their next full-length, maybe that new album isn't that far off after all.
