Baby's All Right CMJ BV

Northampton indie rockers Speedy Ortiz already announced they’re opening US dates for Los Campesinos!, they’ve now announced they’ll sooner tour in support of another band, indie rock greats The Breeders, who Speedy likely owe some influence to. As discussed, that tour hits NYC on December 19 and 20 at Webster Hall, and Speedy Ortiz will be opening both of those dates. Tickets for both shows are still available. Updated Speedy Ortiz dates, including a European tour with Joanna Gruesome, are listed below.

As mentioned, the Los Campesinos!/Speedy Ortiz tour hits NYC on January 22 at Irving Plaza. Tickets for that show are still available.

And though Speedy Ortiz aren’t opening this one, if you’re in Austin, catch The Breeders on New Year’s Eve which is the last of their ‘Last Splash’ shows.

Back during CMJ, Speedy Ortiz played our Friday (10/18) party at Baby’s All Right. We already posted one set of pictures from that show, and another set of Speedy are in this post. They continue below, along with a video of them playing “Ka Prow!” at that show (via Bleary Eyed Brooklyn), and their list of tour dates…
