Indie-rock icons Neutral Milk Hotel have announced an extensive 2015 tour that could be the band’s last indefinitely. The band will play a series of intimate venues around the country starting on April 13, 2015 Carolina Theatre of Greensboro in Greensboro, NC and ending on June 11 at The Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, CA. There’s no word yet if more dates and cities will be added to the trek. The band announced the tour dates along with this message on their official website:
“dear friends we love you but it’s time to say goodbye for the never ending now to announce that spring 2015 will be our last tour for the foreseeable future and so we extend our deepest gratitude to all the beautiful people who came to see us over the last year…..”
Neutral Milk Hotel’s classic lineup reunited in April 2013. The band were a featured act at Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival back in June and Boston Calling 2014 in September. Their last piece of recorded material was the 2011 EP Ferris Wheel on Fire. Their last studio album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea was released in 1998 via Merge Records and is widely considered one of the best albums of the decade. – by Matt Bishop
