Great Lake Swimmers extend tour into the Fall

Having grown and matured with each album since 2005, it's no surprise to fans of Great Lake Swimmers, to see a breakthrough with their fourth and latest album, Lost Channels. Already a success in their native Canada, with stamps of approval from the likes of Feist, the album was released this past March and showcases the groups simple haunting acoustic formula, that has worked so well for them. The band has been on the road nearly non-stop since the albums release, and they just announced a new round of headlining Fall tour dates across the U.S. for late September through October (check below).
