THEM CROOKED VULTURES have announced the dates and venues for their first North American tour, which will begin on October 1 at the kick-off party for the Austin City Limits festival in Austin, Texas. The trio will tape a performance for the "Austin City Limits" TV program one day earlier on September 30, with an airdate to be determined. Tickets for the tour go on sale this Saturday (September 5) at 10:00 a.m. local time. THEM CROOKED VULTURES have played only one show in the U.S. so far, on August 9 at a Lollapalooza afterparty in Chicago.

The band has just finished a short run of European festival dates.

Although a debut album has been completed, reports of an October 27 release are said by the group's publicist to be just rumors, according to The Pulse of Radio.

Several short clips of both live and studio performances by the trio have already surfaced on YouTube.
