These United States

A fitting band name for the current outpouring of patriotism that many Americans are participating in right now, These United States seem to me to fall in between two of my favorite country-ish bands: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and A Night In the Box - upbeat country, bluesy rock music, with a equal hint of pop and grit. They're currently in the midst of a post-election tour. Here are the remaining dates:

Nov 13 Detroit, MI @ PJ's Lager House w/ The Javelins and Lightning Love
Nov 14 Fort Wayne, IN @ the Brass Rail w/ the Orange Opera and Prabir & the Substitutes
Nov 15 Lexington, KY @ Al's Bar, w/ Crown Electric
Nov 16 Louisville, KY @ The Rudyard Kipling
Nov 17 Cincinnati, OH @ Southgate House
Nov 18 Pittsburgh, PA @ Brillobox w/ Jeremy Messersmith
Nov 19 New York, NY @ Knitting Factory w/ Scotland Yard Gospel Choir
Nov 20 Waterbury, CT @ Brooklyn Cafe
Nov 21 Swarthmore, PA @ Swarthmore College w/ Bishop Allen
Nov 22 Washington, DC @ Black Cat w/ The Cassettes
