Wooden Shjips have announced a 2019 European tour.
The band wrapped up a run of UK shows in September and have wasted no time in organising further live dates, which will take place throughout March across mainland Europe.
Erik "Ripley" Johnson, Dusty Jermier, Nash Whalen and Omar Ahsanuddin have lined up the concerts in support of their latest album V, which launched on May 25 via Thrill Jockey.
The follow-up to 2013’s Back To Land was recorded during the summer of 2017, with guitarist Johnson explaining: “We had huge forest fires just outside of Portland and there was intense haze and layers of ash in the city.
“I was sitting on my porch every evening, watching ash fall down like snow, the sky looking like it was on fire. It was an apocalyptic feeling.
“Summer in Portland is usually really chill and beautiful, and we were working on a ‘summer record,’ but the outside world kept intruding on my headspace.”

V is now available to purchase from Amazon.
