It literally seems like the six-piece Syracuse outfit better known as Ra Ra Riot is always on the road. So it came as more of a surprise to learn this weekend that the group isn’t currently on tour rather than the fact that Wes Miles and Co. will be embarking on another round of North American tour dates come next month.

Following a few one-offs in January, including a Planned Parenthood benefit in New York on January 22 - oh by the way, did we mention Regina Spektor is also playing this show? Talk about AWESOME! - and a short stint in the U.K., Ra Ra Riot will embark on a month-long North American tour beginning in February. Included in the dates will also be stops at both the Langerado Music Festival and Noise Pop.
