Mike Gordon Brings Band Back And Announces Overstep LP

Call us crazy, but we had a feeling a full tour was in the works when it was revealed Mike Gordon and his touring band would play Mass MoCA on April 5. Today, the Phish bassist has announced a full tour.

The tour kicks off on March 28 in Syracuse, NY and runs through a April 6 performance in Burlington, VT. Tickets are on sale now via Mike’s website.

Gordon has also revealed that his latest solo album, Overstep, will be released on February 25 via ATO Records. Overstep marks MG’s fourth solo studio effort after 2003’s Inside In, 2008’s The Green Sparrow and 2010’s Moss. Here’s a few additional details about the album:

Mike shared songwriting duties with guitarist and longtime collaborator Scott Murawski and handed over the producing reins for the first time in his solo career, enlisting Paul Q. Kolderie (Radiohead, Uncle Tupelo, Pixies). He also invited a few new players into the studio, including legendary drummer Matt Chamberlain (Jon Brion, Fiona Apple).
