Eddie Argos and his Art Brut pals have been going steady with the Hold Steady on a joint U.S. tour that kicked off last week and will carry the two bands from sea to shining sea over the next month. Craig Finn's crew impressed the boys and girls of America at Philly's Electric Factory Fillmore at the TLA last night with their Boss-inflected tunes, while Argos strutted and shouted tunes from this year's It's a Bit Complicated.

After the inevitable break up, Art Brut will take their show down under for a few dates in December, while the Hold Steady will get a little bit of rest. More photos and tour dates below.
