Tall Dwarfs to Tour USA
Tall Dwarfs are to return to the USA this year to tour with their pals Olivia Tremor Control, by special request.
Not only that, the stateside record label Cloud Recordings will domestically re-release Tall Dwarfs' 'Weeville' and 'Fork Songs' albums to celebrate! The 'Weeville' album was previously released by the now-defunct Homestead label, and the 'Fork Songs' album has never been issued by a U.S. label.
Tall Dwarfs last visited the United States back in 1992 – thirteen years ago - and left behind many a long-lasting fan of the performing duo. The group have continually been credited as musical pioneers and major influences on the underground music scene for years after the act's early-'80s inception.
Here's the finalised dates, including a quick-stop at Auckland's Kings Arms Tavern for a warm-up show (first time live in Auckland since 2002).
