The Wood Brothers have announced a 17-date U.S. tour this fall in support of their forthcoming studio album Puff Of Smoke, due August 1 via Honey Jar/Thirty Tigers. The tour begins November 6 at the Bijou Theatre in Knoxville, TN, and makes stops across the Midwest throughout November, with performances at Old Forester’s Paristown Hall in Louisville, KY, Pantages Theatre in Minneapolis, MN, and Riviera Theatre in Chicago, IL. The second leg continues through the Northeast in December, including shows at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, Roxian Theatre in Pittsburgh, PA, and Brooklyn Paramount in Brooklyn, NY, before concluding at Lebanon Opera House in Lebanon, NH.
Artist presale tickets for the newly announced dates are available today, June 18, at 2 p.m. CT. Local presales begin Thursday, June 19, at 10 a.m. local time. General on-sale starts Friday, June 20, at 10 a.m. local time at thewoodbros.com.
Alongside the tour announcement, The Wood Brothers have released “The Trick,” the third single from Puff Of Smoke. Sonically distinct from their previous work, the track is anchored by Jano Rix’s distorted Fender Rhodes and a driving upright bass figure by Chris Wood. Lyrically, it explores themes of detachment, which have become a recurring focus in the band’s recent songwriting. “The Trick” follows earlier singles “Pray God Listens” and “Witness.”
In a premiere of the song and its lyric video via MAGNET, Oliver Wood shared: “‘The Trick’ is about how we beat ourselves up with self-doubt and constant worry, and how nice it would be to be more bold and ignorant—which is easier said than done. But not giving a damn seems like the goal if you want to stay present, positive, and creative. The song itself was built upon a Fender Rhodes run through distortion and octave pedals that Jano Rix was riffing on in the studio. While that's a different recipe for us, it was very much an improvised performance, so it has an energy that most of our fans can appreciate.”
The Wood Brothers’ summer tour is currently underway, including co-headline dates with St. Paul & The Broken Bones in June and July, along with festival and headline shows through September.
