After a cozy hiatus spent in Montreal writing songs and getting his seventh LP ready to rock, The Keys is about to seriously hit the road and embark in December on his fourth Greyhound-powered solo Tour of the USA, hitting the East Coast and the Midwest big-time to celebrate exciting new material.
In a pre-Christmas haze of excitement, The Keys is coming to your town to deliver the Folk’n’Roll goodies in the form of a brand new album, Long Time No Sea, freshly released by awesome independent French label Another Record.
You shall find below the mad itinerary that will take the singer/songwriter on a 15-day journey having him play every single night of his trip, be it café, club, bar or house show (his trusty ol’ companion and booking agent Boyard Paris sure did a good job.) Some whisper in their beards that after touring his homecountry France (for the first time!) in February 2012, he will be back to continue his tour to promote his new album and hit the beloved South of the USA as well as the West Coast this Spring, but you don’t want to believe in rumours, or do you?
Note that The Keys will be accompanied on his trip by renowned Montreal film-maker Mickaël Artaut who will document his moves, talks, concerts and encounters in order to gather footage for an exciting video about DIY touring and recording.
