Exclusive: Peter Bjorn & John North American Tour

With their breakthrough album Writer's Block just out on our shores last week, indie pop crushes Peter Bjorn & John have revealed the next step in their mission to claim our hearts: a full-scale North American tour.

The trek, which kicks off at Coachella and lasts through the first two weeks of May, follows a tantalizingly brief series of shows a few weeks ago in New York and L.A.

PB&J plan to release "Objects of My Affection", the next single from Writer's Block, soon. It will be available on 7" and CD and will be backed by Girl Talk's remix of "Let's Call It Off".
