Pitchfork

Are the Black Kids the band that you've been dreaming of ever since you were a little girl? Are you a resident of the United Kingdom or certain countries in Europe and Scandinavia? If you answered yes (or aye or ya or whatever you people say), girl, have we got a news item for you. The Black Kids are heading your way this summer. And they're gonna be there for a looong time, jumping back and forth across the Atlantic to their home continent for a festival or two while they're at it.

The Kids' tour with Cut Copy and the Mobius Band launches this weekend, right after Coachella. And then they're pretty much on the road from now until August. Damn.

More kids than a Showbiz Pizza, after the jump.
