Irish noise rockers Sprints are already booked in for a multi-leg tour of the EU and UK in 2024 to support their new album Letter to Self, and have now announced they’ll adding another leg and will be hitting the USA in March. That technically puts this as the second leg of the tour, follow the mainland Europe stage in February.
And while the tour can ostensibly be called “nationwide” in reality it is both coasts with a stop in Chicago.
