The National Announce Dates, New Record

Next Album Slated for May

The National took to social media today to announce some new tour dates in addition to their hometown performance at Brooklyn's Barclay's Center with Youth Lagoon in June.  They'll be joined by Dirty Projectors for several of the newly-announced shows.

In addition, the band announced that their next album is coming in May, though they haven't yet given a title or the exact date.

Alligator, Boxer, and High Violet would all get spots on my favorite albums list; and CoolMom and I had one of our most enjoyable concert experiences seeing The National at The Bell House just before High Violet's release.  It would be great if another tune-up show like that popped up as a local alternative to the Barclay's mega-show.

I'm pretty sure I've posted this before; but, for those of you that know her, see if you can't spy CoolMom in this video just as Matt comes down from the stage.
