St. Catherines rockers Alexisonfire have just embarked on a small North American tour in support of their first new music in nearly 10 years.
This past February, the band released a new song, "Familiar Drugs." It's their first piece of new material since 2009's Old Crows/Young Cardinals.
Watch the music video below!
The North American run will consist of two-night stands in three U.S. cities– New York, Los Angeles and Toronto– before wrapping up June 12 in Ottawa, Canada at Ottawa Blues Fest.
The group – consisting of Dallas Green (clean vocals, piano), Wade MacNeil (guitar), George Pettit (unclean vocals), Chris Steele (bass) and Jordan Hastings (drums) – is getting support by various opening acts, including The Dirty Nil, Glassjaw, Quicksand and Moneen.
Check out some early highlights from the tour's two-night stint at Terminal 5 in New York!
Night 1 (June 7)
The Canadians played a 17-song main set on the tour's opening night, featuring songs like "Boiled Frogs," "Crisis," ".44 Caliber Love Letter" and "Dog's Blood" before a three-song encore of "Familiar Drugs," "Young Cardinals" and "Happiness by the Kilowatt."
Check out their performance of ".44 Caliber Love Letter!"
Night 2 (June 8)
On the second night, AOF switched around the setlist and replaced "You Burn First" with "Waterwings (and Other Poolside Fashion Faux Pas)."
They also came back and played "Little Girls Pointing and Laughing" for the encore instead of "Familiar Drugs."
Watch "Side Walk When She Walk" from the show!
