Melvins opening for The Raconteurs
The Raconteurs just released the very good Help Us Stranger, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart, and their tour kicks off on July 4 in Aspen and rolls through November. They’ve just announced that they’ve tapped a very exciting opener, Melvins, to open up for three of their California shows: Oakland on 7/24, Santa Barbara on 7/27, and San Diego on 7/28.
The Raconteurs hit NYC with Olivia Jean for two nights at Hammerstein Ballroom on 9/5 and 9/6 and Kings Theatre on 9/7. Tickets are still available for the 9/5 Hammerstein show (the other two NYC dates are sold-out).
Melvins, meanwhile, have a collaborative EP with Flipper out now, and will be on tour with Redd Kross and ShitKid this fall. All Melvins dates are listed below too.
