Young The Giant have expanded their upcoming headlining tour. The band has announced additional dates as well as bigger venues for previously announced shows, which basically means this band is now pretty damn popular.
.
The tour, which kicks off on February 10 in San Diego, has also already sold out several stops and the band plans to announce additional dates soon. Walk The Moon (who we suggest checking out) will be opening the first leg of the tour while Grouplove will take over opening duty for the second half. Young The Giant are currently scheduled to finish off 2011 with several radio concerts, including LA’s KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas.
.
Here at MySpace Music we’ve been longtime supporters of the band so we’re thrilled to see how far they’ve come in the past year. We spoke with the band members earlier this year about their success at Austin City Limits. Check out that interview below (and remember, we told you about them before their album even came out!):
