In anticipation of the 4AD release of her debut solo album, Watch the Fireworks (out September 11 in the U.S., September 17 in the UK), former Delgado Emma Pollock has announced a whole slew of North American dates with high profile touring partners the New Pornographers (and two with Spoon!). She's also plotted a few U.S. dates on her own following the New Pornos jaunt.

With "Adrenaline" already out there, a second single, "Acid Test", will precede the release of Fireworks on September 3 in the UK. The single will come as a download, CD, and seven-inch, and all versions will feature Japanese LP bonus track "A Temporary Fix" on the B-side.

Even before then, though, Pollock still has plenty of UK shows scheduled. They continue August 16 in Edinburgh.
