Alternative rockers Alabama Shakes are hitting the road next year
Alabama Shakes are one of the most buzzed-about, up-and-coming alternative rock bands of 2012. The band released their debut full-length, “Boys & Girls,” in April of this year, and the guys are showing no signs of slowing down, as they’re just added a new string of North American tour dates to 2013 itinerary.
Alabama Shakes will kick off their latest jaunt at the Knitting Factory in Boise on March 1 and continue through Seattle, Salt Lake City, Denver, New Orleans, Dallas and beyond before wrapping up at Hal + Mal’s Street Dance in Jackson, Miss. Openers for the trek will include Michael Kiwanuka, Sam Doores and Riley Downing. Check out the full list of tour dates below.
