Fresh off a whirlwind of activity surrounding the September 18 release of Mirage Rock (Brown/Columbia) including appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman (http://youtu.be/T_FKnnhum5s), Conan (http://youtu.be/2qGoPHHJzBI), sets on Live on Letterman and KCRW's Berkeley Street Sessions and more, Band of Horses have confirmed a half dozen more North American headline dates.

The new dates will follow the band's appearance this weekend at the Global Citizen Festival in New York's Central Park, an upcoming run on the Railroad Revival tour with Willie Nelson, and a November UK/Europe tour, and will run from December 3 at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor MI and wrapping December 15 at The National in Richmond VA.

Tickets for the six newly confirmed shows are on sale beginning Friday September 28. For specifics, check bandofhorses.com.

Reaction to Band of Horses' Glyn Johns' produced fourth album Mirage Rock has been overwhelmingly positive, with ROLLING STONE lauding first single "Knock Knock" as having "more going on under the hood than usual, implying the band's upcoming LP will be its most rocking yet," while ESQUIRE recently hailed ballad "Slow Cruel Hands Of Time" as a "perfectly sung warning against looking too far back... everything that's great about Band of Horses in one easy ballad."
