The New Pornographers will play a number of solo club shows later this year on the back of their spot at this year’s Great Escape festival.

The Canadian group will tour Australia this October

The tour will give the band a chance to play their latest album, Challengers, to an Australian audience.

Challengers was recorded in Brooklyn at the Seaside Lounge with Phil Palazzolo. It is the first record the New Pornographers have recorded outside of John Collins’ JC/DC Studio in Canada.
