Cursive adds more U.S. tour dates, will play at Union Transfer on April 5th
Cursive recently announced a U.S. tour in support of the band’s upcoming seventh full-length album, I Am Gemini (due Feb. 21 on Saddle Creek); a second round of tour dates has just been added, including a stop at Union Transfer on April 5th. Tickets go on sale at noon this Friday, January 6th, via the R5 Productions website.
As the band’s press release states, I Am Gemini is a concept album that follows “Cassius and Pollock, twin brothers separated at birth. One good and one evil, their unexpected reunion in a house that is not a home ignites a classic struggle for the soul, played out with a cast of supporting characters that includes a chorus of angels and devils, and twin sisters conjoined at the head.” You can download the track “The Sun And The Moon” from Saddle Creek (in exchange for an email address) below; the track listing and tour dates can be found after the jump.
