The Well Announce Tour Dates with Howling Giant
Hey there tour dates. That’s nice to see, even if they would seem to arrive with the unfortunately-normalized asterisk of *yes-this-will-happen-so-long-as-it-can-happen. But I’m glad to see Austin trio The Well getting back out. The last time I posted a list of shows from the three-piece was when they were headed to Europe in January 2020 and doing US dates in Feb. and into March. Points for timing to them on that one, as they went out supporting 2019’s Death and Consolation (review here), their third album on RidingEasy Records.
I can’t help but wonder if, having spent more time off the toad — you know what? I meant to type “off the road,” but I like “toad” better and I’m leaving that typo — they have new material in the works to some degree, and as they head out with Nashvillain heavy progressives Howling Giant, the list of dates may not be months long, but they’re covering a decent amount of ground in the Midwest and toward the West Coast, and if they perhaps have other regional stints to come later next year — pending blah blah blah — they’d be off to a good start. A new record in there too? Hell if I know, but that’d be fun.
The following poster — which takes my head right to the ’90s and I’m not sure if that’s right or not — and announcement were posted on social media. Have you heard about that? It’s a whole thing:
