New York City’s dirty dance rock hipsters The Fever released an EP on Kemado records last month titled Pink On Pink. In support of that release, and a forthcoming full-length (also on Kemado), The Fever will team with Rough Trade’s favorite blues rock duo, The Kills, for an 11-date US tour. The two bands will be on the road together from September 30 in Minneapolis to October 11 in Boston. The Fever will make the most of their road trip from NYC to meet up with The Kills in Minneapolis though, as they’ve got gigs planned in Pittsburgh, Newport, KY, and Des Moines, IA, leading up to the rendezvous point in Minnesota.
The Kills will be supporting their debut album, Keep On Your Mean Side, which was released in April via Rough Trade in the States. For the Fever’s full tour schedule, see below.
