The following new tours were announced. Check the Tour Dates category every day for more.

GENESIS

It’s official: the post-Gabriel, hit machine lineup of Genesis (Phil Collins, Mike Rutheford, Tony Banks) are back with their first tour in 13 years. They’re calling it “the Last Domino” and  so far it’s just UK / Ireland dates in late fall, including Dublin, Belfast, Liverpool, Leeds, London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, and Newcastle. Surely they’ll bring “Invisible Touch” and “That’s All” to the land of confusion that is North America…next year? Stay tuned. All dates are here.

PARQUET COURTS

Parquet Courts are presumably working on a new album but have a few tour dates lined up for the spring and summer. They’ll be out with Public Practice in April, and then out with P.E. in May (including Asbury Park’s Stone Pony on 5/27), and then Midwest shows in July including Cleveland, Louisville, Minneapolis with Cate Le Bon and a stop at Pitchfork Fest. Head here for all dates.

P.E. (PILL + EATERS)

Brooklyn group P.E. — aka the combined forces of ex-Pill members Veronica Torres, Jonathan Campolo, and Benjamin Jaffe, plus Eaters’ Jonathan Schenke and Bob Jones — release their debut album, Person, this Friday. In addition to those shows with Parquet Courts, they’ll also be out with Montreal’s Pottery and play a record release show this Friday in Brooklyn with Gauche and more.

They also play Rocklahoma and several Europe shows and festivals, which are listed here.

YUNG MANNY

Maryland rapper Yung Manny has been dropping a string of singles and EPs that show off his unconventional flow, and it’s the kinda thing where whether or not you like it, you know you’re listening to something new and weird and different and very attention-grabbing. He’s got some tour dates coming up, including Silver Spring’s Fillmore on 4/17, Atlanta’s Masquerade on 5/8, NYC’s SOB’s on 5/14, Virginia Beach’s Elevation on 5/22, and Richmond’s Broadberry on 5/23.
