Sloan to embark on 20th anniversary North American Tour
- by Terris Schneider
With the highly-anticipated release of their 10th studio album in 20 years, The Double Cross (May 10, Outside Music) just two weeks away, Sloan have announced that they will be headlining dates and appearing at festival stages across North America this spring and summer.
Sloan will bring their exciting stage show to Vancouver on June 3 at the Commodore Ballroom. Fans can expect the Canadian legends to perform the hits and crowd favourites from their ten albums, and the group will be announcing additional dates and special appearances soon.
The Double Cross is now available for pre-order on iTunes Canada. Those who order the album between now and the May 10 release date will immediately receive the exclusive bonus track, “Jesus Loves You”, which will not appear on the iTunes version after the release date.
For those of you in the Toronto area, Sloan will be at Sonic Boom Records (512 Bloor Street West) for an In-Store Performance and Autograph Session on Saturday May 14 at 4 pm.
Watch Jay Ferguson speak about the song “The Answer is You” from the forthcoming record:
