Indigo Girls ready for East Coast jaunt
Following a UK tour this month, the Indigo Girls will be back in the US for a run of East Coast dates.
The US leg will kick off with a five-night stand March 14-18 at Uncasville, CT's Mohegan Sun Cabaret, followed by two nights at New York City's Town Hall. Current dates take the folk-rock duo into early April, but more shows are expected to be announced soon, according to the Indigo Girls' website.
Domestic dates are listed below while international gigs can be found at the group's website.
Now in their 20th year as the Indigo Girls, Amy Ray and Emily Saliers released their 10th studio album, "Despite Our Differences," in September. It is their first set of all-new material since 2004's "All That We Let In."
The new album, the Girls' first on Hollywood Records, was recorded outside of their Georgia comfort zone at veteran producer Mitchell Froom's home studio in Santa Monica, CA. They tried a few new things, like recording with everybody in the same room, and tapped guest artists Pink and Brandi Carlisle.
A couple of songs from "Despite Our Differences" are streaming at the Indigo Girls' MySpace page. One of them is the set's opening track, "Pendulum Swinger," which takes on institutional sexism and the war on terrorism.
Though the Indigo Girls are not ones to make a big fuss over their 20-year milestone, Ray said this new chapter in their career reaffirms the principal that's always driven the duo.
"It's all about living in the moment that you're in and trying to make it better than the moment that came before," she said in a statement on the group's website.
