As previously discussed, Modest Mouse are heading back out on tour soon, and now an opener for several of the dates has been announced: Hop Along. That’s a pretty great match — if you like Modest Mouse’s style of indie rock and want to see a younger band working in that realm, Hop Along are one of the best right now. The MM/HA tour doesn’t hit NYC, but includes Connecticut (10/21), Long Island (10/22), and more.
As you may know, Hop Along do have a headlining NYC show on December 12 at Bowery Ballroom with Radiator Hospital and Des Ark (tickets).
Updated dates are listed below…
