Last week, Bartees Strange released the explosive Farm To Table, his first album since signing to 4AD. The Washington D.C. rocker put together a hard-hitting collection of incredibly honest music that doesn’t just look at his own vulnerabilities, but also speaks to the greater Black experience in America. There’s not too many artists who can claim that within indie and punk music and it renders Strange undoubtedly unique and important.
Now he’s just announced his first every US headlining tour that will begin later this year. Pom Pom Squad is the direct support for Strange and this easily belongs on your list of must-see tours this year. Check out the complete list of tour dates below.
