Front Bottoms

The Front Bottoms have been on tour in support of this year’s Back On Top with The Smith Street Band and Elvis Depressedly. The tour already hit NYC for two BV-presented Irving Plaza shows (check out pictures) and now it’s over on the west coast. TFB and their tourmates have been keeping a video diary of the tour, and we’ve got the premiere of their Week 4 video. Here’s the description:

The Front Bottoms Back on Tour Week 4 keeps the dice rolling as Dancing Tony joins the squad to help Tommy Two Slaps celebrate his birthday, study calcite, enjoy a couple of hot tubs and contemplate extraterrestrial life forms over another week of sold out shows. Featuring Dancing/Uncle Tony, Elvis Depressedly, The Smith Street Band, GDP, Bosma and many more.

Check it out, with a few more recent live photos, below.

Elvis Depressedly play NYC again in December with LVL UP, who open the Dilly Dally show at Baby’s this weekend.
