Cursive Announce U.S., Euro Dates

Cursive have a new album, Happy Hollow, coming out August 22 on Saddle Creek. It has horns on it, as Tim Kasher told us in an interview in March, and it's sort of a concept album about a small town. The LP will be preceded by a single that will be released in July.

The band has scheduled a short string of July U.S. dates to hype the album, culminating in an appearance at Lollapalooza at the beginning of August. Then, it's off to Europe for "a couple weeks of shows", according to Cursive's website, but only one has been a announced so far. After Europe, they'll return to America for a September tour.

That's about it. Don't really have anything witty to add, sorry.
