Posted in music | tour dates on June 2, 2010

"We're still in sunny L.A., in the final stages of recording the album, but plans are already afoot for touring throughout the rest of 2010" wrote Belle & Sebastian at the end of May. Those 2010 touring plans include shows in Europe, Asia and North America (with a TBA trip to South America). As part of that (and as previously reported), the band will be playing Brooklyn's Williamsburg Waterfront on September 30th with Teenage Fanclub (who have a new album of their own coming out). Tickets for the NYC show go on "Internet Presale" Thursday at 10am.
They'll continue on for a show in L.A., a pair in Mexico and a handful more in Canada and the US this fall. Full tour dates are below (Las Vegas still TBA?).
Also due in 2010, ex-Belle & Sebastian singer Isobel Campbell will be releasing her third album with collaborator Mark Lanegan, called Hawk and due August 16th on V2/Cooperative Music. Guests include ex-Smashing Pumpkin James Iha and songwriter Willy Mason.

Me Love Belle & Sebastian. Listening to them is like eating a good cheese plate on a rainy night.

they've been in LA for how long and still booked the most shit-tastic venue in the whole city?

if you're a real fan you'll be upfront so it really shouldn't matter where they are playing. i really couldn't give 2 fucks what venue B&S decides to play. it's going to be amazing.

Do these guys work outdoors? It seems like a gentle breeze could blow their music up into the ether to be lost forever

"Do these guys work outdoors? It seems like a gentle breeze could blow their music up into the ether to be lost forever"
nah they are great outdoors..battery park & prospect park shows were stellar. They get this twee tag but they are pretty rocking & grooving live... I mean they aren't Metallica or anything but they aren't a bunch of introverts slumped over their instruments... they know how to entertain thats for sure... it will be a lovely night
