The Spits VI

The Spits returned to action with the release of VI in the fall of 2020, roughly ten years after album five released. Now, a year and half later, the group is also hitting the road, playing along the US West Coast this week and then heading east through the US and parts of Canada.

The tour includes dates with VR Sex, Timmy's Organism, Dark Thoughts, and Night Birds.

In September the band is also scheduled to perform at Goner Fest in Memphis, TN.
