Old-timey folk revivalist Pokey LaFarge spent the better part of 2014 on the road, playing over 250 shows throughout the year. He’s since signed to Rounder Records to release the followup to his 2013 album on Third Man, and has now announced a slew of 2015 dates spanning Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and North America leading up to his appearance at Bonnaroo.

The tour brings Pokey and his band to NYC on May 6 at Bowery Ballroom. Tickets for that show go on AmEx presale today (1/21) at noon with the general on-sale starting Friday (1/23) at noon.

Check out the rest of Pokey’s tour dates, along with a video of the band performing at last year’s Nelsonville Music Festival, below…
