Guster tour markes 10th anniversary of 'Lost' album

Alt-rockers Guster have mapped an eight-city headlining tour this fall celebrating the 10th anniversary of the band's "Lost and Gone Forever" studio album.

The Boston-based group will perform two sets at each venue on the outing, playing the album in its entirety during one of the sets each night. There will be no opening act on the tour, which kicks off Oct. 28 in Charlotte, NC, and runs through a Nov. 27 show in New York City. Dates are below.

"Lost and Gone Forever," Guster's 1999 release, was the band's third studio album, following 1995's "Parachute" and 1998's "Goldfly." The venues chosen for the fall tour each have historical significance to the band related to the original tour in support of the album 10 years ago, according to a press release.

Apart from celebrating the "Lost and Gone Forever" milestone, Guster continues to back 2006's "Ganging Up on the Sun," along with an 8-song EP from 2007, "Satellite," which comprises live cuts and new recordings. Tracks from the album and the EP are streaming at the band's MySpace page.

The group, which has been in the studio working on a still-untitled new album, will release its next studio set on Aware/Columbia after recording its last two albums for the Reprise label. According to a December Billboard article, the band has purchased carbon credits to offset the environmental impact of recording and distributing the forthcoming album.
