Shapes and Sizes, a Canadian band that calls Asthmatic Kitty home, will be going on a brief mini West Coast tour starting August 3. Rumor has it that there will be a larger tour of North America later in the fall.

In other Shapes and Sizes news, the band is having a pretty cool contest where you can try your hand at winning $300 and the whole Asthmatic Kitty catalog (hellloooo Sufjan!).
