Arcade Fire Announce Entire U.S. Spring Tour

Fresh off their unexpected, if well-deserved, awards week victories, Arcade Fire have just confirmed what they claim will be all the remaining dates of their upcoming U.S. tour. Special guest openers for the run will vary by city and include Local Natives, the National, Okkervil River and Explosions in the Sky, respectively.

Joining a previously announced and long sold-out three-night stand in Chicago, Arcade Fire will kick off this leg of their tour at the newly famed 1st Bank Center in Broomfield, Colo. — on the outskirts Denver — on April 9. From there, the tour will snake through Orem, Utah (April 11), Phoenix, Ariz. (April 13), Las Vegas, Nev. (April 14), Sante Fe, N.M. (April 18), Kansas City, Mo. (April 20), Indianapolis, Ind. (April 27) and Memphis, Tenn. (April 28) before wrapping up with three dates throughout Texas (Dallas, Austin and the Houston area) in early May.

In addition to the 14 headlining dates, Arcade Fire will anchor two major U.S. festivals: Coachella on Saturday, April 16 (Indio, Calif.) and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival on Friday, May 6. Complete dates and ticketing information may be found on the band’s official website, shortly.

Earlier this week, the band’s latest album, ‘The Suburbs,’ took home the Grammy for Album of the Year. Two days later, the album won the 2011 BRIT Award for International Album. Who are they again?
