The Walkmen’s reunion tour is on fire, so much so that they’ve added additional dates. The band just added a series of new shows during September and October that will take them from coast to coast before circling back to Toronto.
In an email to their fans on their mailing list, the group’s bass guitarist, Peter Matthew Bauer, shared the latest and greatest on the tour and the band’s upcoming plans. “We are just getting going, and I’m not sure we want it to end,” Bauer writes. “I will say, after being the dummy which, I guess, broke the band up last time by saying something about an ‘extreme hiatus,’ I’m going to avoid saying anything like that again. I will say that what makes it all special is when you don’t know what will happen next and when you can actually wonder if this is the last time you’ll ever get the chance to do this.
Prior to the tour, the Walkmen shared a photo on social media in which they appeared to be signing a record contract, however, Bauer’s note makes no mention of any plans for a new album.
“I don’t know what happens next, but I do know these shows are just about the end of what’s happening now,” he concludes.
