The Watson Twins will be on tour in North America with Ben Kweller beginning February 16 in Omaha, Nebraska and concluding March 6 in Birmingham, Alabama. The Watson Twins will also be doing in-store performances at independent stores along the tour in support of the new EP. Grimey’s in Nashville and Ear-X-Tacy in Louisville are confirmed to date, with more to be added.
This will be an excellent opportunity to experience why the Los Angles Times listed Fire Songs as one the best releases of 2008 in a live setting.

“Fire Songs proves the Watson Twins are a strong songwriting team, and one that has earned its time in the spotlight.” – Billboard
“The aura they project, of one voice split in two, enhances their ability to cast a spell.” – Los Angeles Times
