The Shins have weaved in several headlining shows to a May schedule that was already laden with festival appearances.
The Shins have confirmed another round of U.S. shows for later this year as the rockers continue promoting their world tour behind the recently released "Port of Morrow."
Fans attending Saturday's Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival yesterday (4/14) enjoyed warmer temps and sunshine at the event grounds in Indio, CA.
As a band, The Shins have always been about as real as James Mercer's imagination. On their own they're basically Wings, except with even less incentive to tour the state fair circuit sans their leader.
Friday's SXSW showcase lineup marked one of the music festival's best selections of artists of the week, keeping fans running from venue to venue throughout downtown Austin.
The Shins will follow up a short series of European dates with a newly extended run of U.S. shows supporting their first release in five years, the impending "Port of Morrow."
Jack White, Bon Iver, Beck, Pretty Lights and The Shins will helm the 11th edition of the Sasquatch! Music Festival, which will take over the Gorge Amphitheatre this Memorial Day weekend.
Indie-rockers The Shins, who have kept a low profile for the last couple of years, will soon be back in the spotlight.
