As mentioned, tUnE-yArDs is releasing a new album, Nikki Nack, on May 6 via 4AD, and since we last spoke she’s released its first single, “Water Fountain,” the album artwork and tracklist. You can check out all of that below.

She has an upcoming NYC show at Rough Trade (5/7), which is long sold out, but she’s also just announced a more proper tour which hits NYC for larger shows at Webster Hall on June 22 and 23. Both of those shows, and many other dates on the tour, are with Sylvan Esso, who put on a great set at our BV Thursday SXSW party (pics of that coming very soon). Tickets for the Webster Hall shows are not on sale yet, but you can check Ticketmaster for updates.

A few of tUnE-yArDs’ dates are also supporting Arcade Fire on their tour (but not in NYC). All dates are listed, with the new song, LP artwork and tracklist, below…
