Poptone — which also features Haskins’ daughter Diva Dompe, formerly of Blackblack, on bass — is about two weeks into its U.S. tour, which began on the West Coast and has been heading east, with previously announced dates running up until July 9 in Chicago.
The band today unveiled seven August dates on the East Coast, including shows in New York City and Boston. Plus, there’s a newly announced concert in July in St. Louis, Mo., and the group has postponed a planned June 4 date in Vancouver in favor of a second Portland concert (a make-up date is expected).
The group’s tour resumes next week in Santa Cruz, Calif.
