In a teaming of two of the most nattily dressed bands in indie rock (at least in an Esquire magazine sort of way), Spoon and the Walkmen will hit the road together this April. Expect a run on well-tailored, high-quality button-down shirts just before the outing begins April 2 in Kansas City.

Up-and-comers White Rabbits will open the trek. They have also been known to go business casual.

Spoon have also added a few U.S. dates sans Walkmen and White Rabbits. The Walkmen have that tour with Vampire Weekend coming up as well, speaking of business casual.

And don't forget that just in time for the tour, Merge will release Spoon's "Don't You Evah" EP on April 8.
