Of Montreal's latest album, lousy with sylvianbriar, is scheduled for release Oct. 8. To commemorate that, frontman Kevin Barnes has gathered a new band to hit the road for the following month, beginning with a show in Barnes’ hometown of Athens, Ga. The Seattle ladies of La Luz will join Of Montreal halfway through the tour and remain until the final show, also in Georgia. No word yet whether Barnes plans to perform naked again, but gratuitous costume changes are all but guaranteed. A full list of dates is below.
