YES! King Khan And The Shrines, one of my favorite acts at last year's SXSW, is coming to Dallas in April on what's being billed as a "comeback tour."
The band is hitting 17 cities in late March and the first half of April, but perhaps wisely altogether avoiding Kentucky, where Khan and his BBQ Show tour manager were arrested after getting caught with magic mushrooms in a traffic stop in November.
Khan & co. play at Sons Of Hermann Hall Tuesday, April 6, with support from The Fresh & Onlys. Cost for this all-ages, Parade of Flesh-booked show is a bit steep at $13 in advance (on sale now here) and $15 at the door, but I guarantee the experience will be priceless.
After the jump, more show announcements.
