Mates Of State And Black Kids To Play Two Night Stand At The Independent

Apparently (hopefully) somewhat chastened by their Fillmore->GAMH downsizing last fall, the Black Kids have this time decided to embark on a co-headlining tour with the always loveable husband-wife team of Mates Of State. The two bands will be playing two nights at the Independent on April 20th and 21st, switching their playing order between the two. The tour goes throughout April, and manages to catch both coasts, and even quite a few spots in between. For two bands that write such catchy tunage, we can't really see how you'd go wrong.

Tickets go on-sale this Sunday at 10 AM.
