BRAIDS hit up Canadian cities to promote album
After much critical acclaim for their live performances, BRAIDS have added four more dates to their tour. They have already performed a sold-out CD Release party in Montreal and have had sold out shows with Bath in Toronto and Montreal last week, so the band will return to both cities with Toro Y Moi in April, and again with Of Montreal in May.
The band will also hit up Western Canada in late March with sets at the Biltmore in Vancouver on March 28, and The Grand in Calgary on March 30. BRAIDS is touring in support of their album Native Speaker, which has received rave reviews from Spin Magazine, the Globe & Mail, See, Vice, Eye, and Pitchfork.
