The Slits Announce North American Tour
The Slits reunion is for real, it's coming to America, and now we have the tour dates to prove it. The reggae punk will tour North America around the time of the CMJ Music Marathon in New York City, hitting up both coasts, Texas, and Canada.
The trek is slated to kick off just before the band's first new material in two decades, the Revenge of the Killer Slits EP, hits shelves on October 17 via SAF Records. As previously reported, the EP features Slits Ari Up and Tessa Pollitt joined by such guests as Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook and Adam & the Ants guitarist Marco Pirroni.
