New Weakerthans website, dates, lineup news
The Weakerthans have redesigned their official website and with it have announced new fall tour dates. After their dates with Lucero and Murder By Death the band will play a handful of shows in Ontario and Quebec with The Constantines and Fembots. Click below for the details.
Chart Attack is reporting on the band's current lineup following the loss of bass player John Sutton: "A fellow by the name of Greg Smith will be playing bass, Dave Mackinnon will be playing keyboards and Brian Poirier will provide vocals and guitars. If Mackinnon and Poirier's names sound familiar, it's because they also make up the core duo of Fembots, who'll be opening for The Weakerthans on a few of their fall dates. Handy, eh?"
