A glance at her web site shows the following mini-tour about to start, before she heads off for Europe. Next spring she'll be touring a solo show, but this looks more interesting to me. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to see any shows, so I'd love to hear a report from someone! Neal (flying up to CT this afternoon... Great article on ectofest Chuck and Meredith. Hopefully that'll bring in a lot of people.) Anderson will be touring the United States and Europe with her band in September and October in support of the release of the record.

Maybe they could work with an American band and do "Land of the Vast Blind Horizon".
