King Buffalo Announce Tour Dates; Playing Austin Terror Fest at SXSW and More
Rochester heavy psych rockers King Buffalo have had some work done on their Buffalo Bills van and would seem to be ready to hit the road ahead of a round of US tour dates next month. They’ll do a couple Upstate kickoff shows this weekend in Buffalo and their hometown, and then head to Columbus on March 1 to begin the run proper, which includes gigs at SXSW at Austin Terror Fest — the Texan manifestation of the Southwest Terror Fest held each fall in Arizona — and alongside fuzz forebears Dead Meadow before they go to Fort Worth and meet up with Wo Fat. Nice to know they’ll be in good company.
They go, of course, supporting last year’s stellar debut, Orion (review here), which was picked up for issue by Stickman after being released initially by the band themselves, and this run should make for a decent preparation for their first trip to Europe this summer. They’re already confirmed for Stoned from the Underground in Germany this July, and at this point I’m wondering if a full tour is in the works around that. As the list of dates below would indicate, they’re clearly looking to hit the road in a bigger way this year. Too bad they won’t be able to take that van across the Atlantic.
I don’t know how to say it more clearly. Go see King Buffalo:
