The Head and the Heart to Spend Nearly Half a Year on the Road

Indie folk group the Head and Heart will embark on an extensive North American tour this spring that will continue through the summer and fall. The trek covers the time before and after the band releases their upcoming album, Living Mirage, due out May 17th. It also includes an appearance at Woodstock 50, and the band Hippo Campus will support a handful of dates.

Tickets go on sale next Friday, March 29th, at 10 a.m. local time via Live Nation. The concert promoter is also running several presales tied to certain credit cards as well as a “special fan presale” that launches Monday.

The price of admission includes the choice of either a CD or digital copy of Living Mirage. Concertgoers will receive an email explaining how to redeem the offer. To tease the release, the group recently released a lyric video for the first single, “Missed Connection.”

The preview the tour, the group performed a concert at Los Angeles’ Belasco Theater last night. The whole, nearly 90-minute concert is available to stream.

Over the last few years, the group has gained traction on the charts, earning a Top 10 album for their second album, 2013’s Let’s Be Still, and a Number Five bow for 2016’s Signs of Light. At the time of that album’s release, co-founding vocalist Josiah Johnson’s addiction problems were inhibiting his recording, so he went on hiatus. He does not appear on Living Mirage.
