Neko Case keeps pushing 'Cyclone' on road

Singer/songwriter Neko Case has mapped spring and summer tour plans as she continues to support her new "Middle Cyclone" LP, which she dropped earlier this year.

The Canadian performer--who, aside from her solo career, is also a member of The New Pornographers--kicks off the outing May 28 in Albuquerque, NM. The trek splits into two legs, with Case taking a few weeks off in late June and early July before resuming the tour July 10 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and concluding with an Aug. 9 appearance at Chicago's Lolapalooza. Details are below.

"Middle Cyclone," Case's first release since 2006's "Fox Confessor Brings The Flood," features the singer and her band joined by a number of guests, including M. Ward, Garth Hudson and Sarah Harmer, as well as members of The New Pornographers, Los Lobos, Calexico and Giant Sand, among others.

The album, co-produced by Case with New Pornographers studio engineer Darryl Neudorf, surfaced in early March, debuting at No. 3 on The Billboard 200, which marked the singer's first entry in the US Top 10.

Case's latest single, "People Got A Lotta Nerve," hit radio stations in January. The video for the song can currently be accessed through Case's website.
