BLK JKS Announce North American Tour Dates

South Africa’s BLK JKS, recently signed with Secretly Canadian, will embark on a string of U.S. tour dates March 2 in Bloomington, IN, where they recently completed recording their forthcoming full-length. The tour continues to New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco before taking the band to a return appearance at SXSW. More dates are forthcoming.

After an action packed 2008 that found the band playing their first U.S. shows, receiving critical acclaim from the likes of The New York Times, Billboard, The Guardian and Dazed and Confused, the band is poised to build on the success with a March 10 re-release of their MYSTERY EP, which has been re-mastered and re-sequenced.
