Yo La Tengo are all set to begin their usually-annual hometown Hanukkah shows tomorrow, December 4, but not before they sneak out news of even more dates next year. 'Tis the season of giving, after all.

The new shows all take place in the U.S., and they constitute the latest leg of the Freewheeling Yo La Tengo tour. The mostly acoustic sets of stories and songs start January 9 in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Lambchop's Kurt Wagner opens them all.
