Dinosaur Jr and Built To Spill UK Tour

• 19th Apr 2010

Grunge heroes Dinosaur Jr. have announced a spring tour with special guests Built to Spill, set to kick off May 8 in Oxford. The band – whose original line up reunited in 2007 for its first album in 18 years – will hit venues across the UK.

Released in June on PIAS, Dinosaur Jr.'s latest release ‘Farm’ is one of the band's most critically and commercially successful albums to date. It debuted at #29 on the Billboard charts, a career best for the band and proved to both critics and fans alike that the reunion of Dinosaur Jr. was not just a return to form, but one of America’s greatest living rock bands continuing to deliver some of their best music to date.
