Gotye Announces 2012 North American Tour Dates

Gotye Making Mirrors

Gotye just sent out a blast to his fans thanking everyone for their support and for “listening to my stuff recently.” Saying things have become kind of absurd and that he can’t believe how far his music – made in his folks’ barn – has traveled, Gotye announced he’s coming back to North America beginning in August.

The upcoming tour dates reflect a mix of cities Gotye played in March and April as well as new venues. And if you want to get the scoop on purchasing tickets, be sure to like his Facebook page or sign up for his mailing list by 12 am EST on June 4th.

Gotye offered this explanation as to what we can expect from the upcoming tour: “To all y’all long-time listeners, the guys in the band and I are working on a bunch of older songs for upcoming shows – lots of folks were asking for tracks from Boardface and Like Drawing Blood that we haven’t played live before. It’s gonna be fab to extend the show and play some different things for you, and share for the first time some new visuals from some amazing animators I’ve been lucky to work with recently.”
