Upcoming Concert: Bright Eyes at the Fox Theater, Pomona, CA

Bright Eyes posted tour dates a while back and none of them were in the Southern California area. It was a real bummer at the time, but it seems that things have fallen through and they will be playing on April 13th, 2011 at the Fox Theater in Pomona, CA. I am happy to say this is their only Southern CA show and it's a good venue to pick. It's not because I've been there before, but because it's one of the few venues an artist can play in the LA area before the days of Coachella and not infringe on the contract that Coachella imposes. The Fox Theater is owned by Goldenvoice, therefore there is still a good chance that Bright Eyes will also be at this year's Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.

Tickets go on-sale for the Pomona date tomorrow on January 15th, 2011 at 10am. You can purchase your tickets on Ticketmaster.com for US $29.50 - US $39.50.

More new tour dates after the jump.

With just weeks to go until the  release of Bright Eyes’ seventh studio album, The People’s Key (out 2/15 in the US, 2/14 everywhere else), the band have added further dates to what will be their first tour in over three years.  

The first leg of the tour has now confirmed label mates Cursive (March 2nd – March 6th) and Mynabirds (March 10th – March 17th) as support.

Bright Eyes will also play a handful of shows overseas this February, including a date at the Scala in London (with Tim Kasher as supporting act). As always, please check www.conoroberst.com for ticket links as they become available.
