Pitchfork

Cross-continental Thrill Jockey outfit Extra Golden will tour the U.S. this summer in support of last year's Hera Ma Nono, their second album. This will be only Extra Golden's second tour of the States, and the first since their Obama-assisted trek of 2006. They're making the most of it, bringing along five singers and three guitarists, who will trade off lead vocal and rhythm/lead guitar duties, respectively.

Extra Golden's two-legged Stateside tour kicks off June 9 in Charlotte and surrounds a handful of European dates. It also includes a stop at the Pitchfork Music Festival.
