UK heavy shoegazers Swervedriver are still working on their first new album since the late ’90s. While we haven’t heard any new updates, something is stirring as Swervedriver have announced a 2015 tour centered around an appearance at SXSW. Those dates include NYC at Music Hall of Williamsburg on March 27 with Gateway Drugs opening. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (11/21) at noon with an AmEx presale beginning at noon on Wednesday (11/19). The band last toured in 2012. All dates are listed below.

While we wait for new music from Swervedriver, frontman Adam Franklin took on a project called “All Happening Now,” where he re-recorded some of Swervedriver, Toshack Highway and Magnetic Morning’s songs (plus a few covers). It was part of a fundraiser for Adam Franklin & the Bolts of Melody 2013 album, Black Horses, and can be streamed in three parts below.
