We caught Haerts a few time in 2013, once as opener to Shout Out Louds at Varsity Theater and once as opener to Atlas Genius at Fine Line Music Cafe.
It would seem that the New York-based band is now back on the road in support of their self-titled debut album. Co-headlining the tour will be Mikky Ekko, a band that I mentioned in my Mika, Mykki, Mikky, Mikael, Mike, Mikill article.
