Indie rockers Spoon [ tickets ] will back their curiously named new studio album, "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga," with a schedule largely composed of festival appearances this summer and beyond.

The Austin, TX, quartet will hit no fewer than 11 festivals during the coming months, including a Sept. 14 slot at its hometown Austin City Limits Festival. The trek also includes an Aug. 4 slot at Chicago's Lollapalooza, followed the next day by an appearance at Baltimore's edition of the Virgin Festival.

The extended outing runs into fall and features a headlining slate in October as the trek begins to wind down. The full itinerary is included below.

"Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga," which is due in stores July 10, was named after "the sound of one of the first songs written for the record, 'The Ghost of You Lingers,'" according to a posting on the band's website. The album is the band's sixth full-length, and follows 2005's "Gimme Fiction."

The band is currently streaming the complete new album on a dedicated website.

Spoon is the brainchild of vocalist/guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno. Since founding the group in 1994, the duo has worked with a succession of bass players and keyboardists. It released its first album, the minimalist art-punk set "A Series of Sneaks," in 1998, and followed that up in 2000 with "Girls Can Tell." Spoon broke through commercially with 2002's "Kill the Moonlight."
