Bob Mould announces October tour dates

Fresh off his highly celebrated collaboration with No Age at All Tomorrow’s Parties in New York, visionary alternative rock artist Bob Mould has just announced a string of North American performances this October with support at different junctures from Brooklyn folkie Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, Alec Ounsworth (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah) and Spiral Stairs (AKA Scott Kannberg of Pavement) The trip will include shows at the Treasure Island Music Festival in San Francisco and an intimate performance at the famed Troubadour nightclub in Los Angeles.

It’s been a productive time for Mould with the release of his acclaimed new album “Life And Times” which The Guardian UK called, “An eclectic, at times explicit, exploration of love, loss and lust… the work of a skilled songwriter comfortable in his own skin and canon,” and Popmatters.com remarked, “This is without question the rawest and most vital he’s sounded in quite some time."

Mould has also been busy penning his autobiography that will be released in the fall of 2010. Upon completing the North American shows, Mould will cross the Atlantic for a performance at the All Tomorrow’s Parties, “Nightmare Before Christmas” festival in England as well as two headline shows in the UK.
