Constantines Add Keyboardist, Plan Summer Tour

The Constantines are a
five-piece now that the Guelph natives have picked up Toronto keyboardist Whil Kidman.
After touring with the band last summer Kidman (who also fronts Toronto-based
two piece Woolly Leaves) was asked to join full time. The band's sophomore
release is due on July 22nd from Three
Gut Records in Canada and Sub Pop
everywhere else. Drummer Doug MacGregor spoke with Exclaim
about the band's plans to tour extensively in support of the release,
"That's pretty much the plan.... Get in the van and see how far we can go,
and see what crazy adventures we can get into along the way." Check a
