LOS ANGELES (Little Feat Official Website) -
Little Feat takes their brand of infectious groove rock to
Europe from June 29 to July 13 as part of their world tour in support of their new recording "Kickin' It At The Barn".
The last time Little Feat toured overseas was June 2001 and they have not been to Italy since July 1989. "So much has happened in the last 3 years, what with our new record company and having released 6 records on Hot Tomato," said guitarist/vocalist Paul Barrere. "It will be a great time to share some of the new music with them."
In early 2002, Little Feat started Hot Tomato Records. Since then, they have released 6 albums on their label "Ripe Tomatos," "Raw Tomatos," "Live At The Ram's Head," Fred Tackett's solo album "In A Town Like This," and "Down Upon The Suwannee River" (recently nominated for "Archival Album Of The Year" at the 4th Annual Jammy Awards). The new studio album, "Kickin' It At The Barn," will be released on Hot Tomato on April 6.
"What a joy it will be to get back across the pond again," said Barrere. "I am really looking forward to hooking up with our European fans."
Upon their return to the States, Little Feat will continue with the U.S. leg of their world tour. Their first show back from Europe is July 15 in Walker, Minn. for the Moondance Ranch Jam Festival.
