Since we really really really liked Mount Eerie‘s most recent full-length, Wind’s Poem, it comes with great pleasure to report that Phil Elverum’s Washington based project will be spending quite a bit of time on the road in the coming weeks. Beginning this week, the band will embark on what is currently a two month, coast-to-coast trek that includes dates with the likes of Karl Blau and Why? among others.
