New Album and Tour Dates for The National

We’re thrilled that the American leg of The National’s tour starts with Big Ears 2010.
Earlier today, Paste posted the band’s itinerary and news of the May album release.
The band’s website offers a little more information about the pending release: “The as of yet untitled follow-up to Boxer will be released worldwide in May on 4AD (specific date TBA). The shows begin at the Big Ears festival in Knoxville, Tennessee on March 28th…”
The critically acclaimed Boxer was released in 2007.
