Akron/Family - a Bowery show, ATP NY, SXSW, Union Pool (TIX back on sale) & other tour dates

Akron Family

Akron/Family‘s three March NYC shows were previously sold out, but now tickets are back on sale for the March 29th one with Larkin Grimm at Union Pool. That venue is much smaller than Bowery Ballroom where their NYC show after that will take place. The May 6th date was just announced and tickets go on sale Friday at noon.

Also just announced: Akron/Family are playing ATP NY on September 12 with Animal Collective, Panda Bear, Melvins and many more.

Their new album, Set ‘Em Wild, Set ‘Em Free, will be released by Dead Oceans one day before the Bowery show…

“Everyone is Guilty” is the first single from AKRON/FAMILY’S upcoming May 5th full-length release, Set ‘Em Wild, Set ‘Em Free. Featuring album opener “Everyone is Guilty” along with non-album b-side “Total Destruction,” this single is available as a limited edition 7″ and digital release. The vinyl will be available at Akron/Family shows and via record stores participating in Record Store Day 2009.
