The Mars Volta returned with their first album in a decade in 2022, and their new acoustic reimagining of those songs, Que Dios Te Maldiga Mi Corazon, is out today via Clouds Hill. Omar Rodríguez-López says it’s the band’s version of a “folk record,” and you can stream it below.

The band will be on the road again starting with Shaky Knees in May, and they’ve added a round of North American dates in September. Like previous shows, they’re with Teri Gender Bender of Le Butcherettes. See all dates below.

The September shows include a new NYC show, which BrooklynVegan is psyched to be presenting, at Kings Theatre on September 22. You can get tickets early on BrooklynVegan Presale starting Wednesday, April 26 at 10 AM eastern. UPDATE: The password is BVMV23. Our presale runs until Thursday, April 27 at 10 PM, and if you miss out, tickets go on general sale Friday, April 28 at 10 AM.
