Seems like Low haven’t had this many dates in a row in awhile, but you can’t really blame them. Based on my ridiculous preconceived notions, Alan Sparhawk spends most of his day gazing wistfully out a window, all the while occasionally sipping from a glass of Drank. Not much time for touring with a schedule like that. But, evidently, a wild hair has struck the band, as the long-running slowcore group is going on tour. Most of the dates hit Europe, but there are a few Australian and New Zealand shows in the itinerary, along with a single North American date at the tour’s tail end. If you see a slower show this year, Sparhawk will personally refund your ticket purchase. Offer not valid anywhere.
