Offer a warm salute to gentle sound-melders Aloha, who have lined up a bunch of U.S. tour dates for March and April, including a stop-in at SXSW. The next goes down March 10 in Rochester, and all this tuneful uprooting comes in celebration of the recent Aloha EP Light Works on Polyvinyl.

The band has also welcomed longtime associate Nick Anderson into the Aloha flock for good, and they presently share drummer Cale Parks with the White Williams live act. Once Aloha wrap this round of touring, they've got big plans to work up their next LP for a fall release. And now, if you please, you can say "Aloha" to this news blurb in the sense of farewell, for we are done here.
