The venerable and spirit rousing band, New Model Army just announced their North American 2008 tour dates on their website. Hot on the heels of their newest album HIGH. Lucky for me on of those dates is at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto! Last time I saw New Model Army play it was in the ancient, legendary Toronto venue Lee's Palace. I will always remember the haunting acoustic guitar of Justin Sullivan echoing in my soul.

NMA is not only a band you can tap your feet to, they are a band that 'makes sense' and you can get behind.

I wonder if they ever met Billy Bragg? Tour Dates within...

North American Tour confirmed!! Starts March 18 and is complete!

We have finally managed to confirm the last few dates. Sorry to Quebec, but we were unable to complete the shows in Montreal and Quebec in time, so have had to switch to Northern US dates. We will get back next time. All shows are now on sale. Posters and flyers will be available in a week or so. Please contact the MySpace site if you are interested in spreading the word and we will get materials to you.

The band are delighted to finally be able to tour HIGH in North America. See you in three weeks!
