In news most everybody can get behind, DJ/producer/multi-instrumentalist Simon Posford will be taking the much renowned Shpongle on a U.S. tour this spring. And while it be comprised of a series of DJ sets without partner/master flutist Raja Ram, the UK native will be hitting every corner of the country. How often does that happen, right?

In support of the November release of Ineffable Mysteries from Shpongleland, Posford will kick things off April 13th in Charleston, SC, DJ some more shows in the South, and then heads up for a New York stop at The Fillmore. After that, the tour crosses the Midwest and hits some theaters in California before finishing off at the Showbox in Seattle May 8th.

In place of Raja Ram, Posford will be joined on the tour by a few special guests. Accompanying the DJ will be Younger Brother partner and fellow Twisted Records artist Benji Vaughan (a.k.a. Prometheus), along with media artists VJ Zebbler (that will be insane) and theater company ArcheDream for Humankind (same).

Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.
