The 17-date tour kicks off with a hometown stop the day after Christmas at the famed Tipitina’s. The 2014 leg of the tour continues on to Texas with a stop in Houston and then to Austin for a special New Year’s Eve performance at the Empire Control Room. In 2015, Earphunk continues their run with stops throughout the Southeast including dates in Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, The Carolinas, Florida, and Tennessee. A full list of tour dates are below.
