Annuals Tour with Minus the Bear, Play Lincoln Theatre

 

Annuals are becoming a daily thing around these parts. It seems we haven’t been able to go a week without mentioning a new album, a date at Raleigh Wide Open, a new album from their alter ego, and now a full US tour with Minus the Bear including a stop at Lincoln Theatre in Downtown Raleigh.

 

Annuals lovers will want to mark their calendars with a couple of dates. First is the Raleigh Wide Open gig on September 5th, the second is October 7th for the release of their sophmore album Such Fun, and the final date is October 29th when they will play Lincoln Theatre with Minus the Bear and Sylvie. Annuals all the time, but who’s complaining?  Not me.

Tickets will be on sale HERE on Saturday August 9th.
