Apollo Ghosts: coming to a haunt near you

Fresh off their Polaris Music Prize longlist nomination, Apollo Ghosts have announced details of a summer tour that will take them from NYC to T.O. through July and August in support of Mount Benson.  The album is their ode to Nanaimo, British Columbia; a lo-fi tribute to the mysterious west coast community whose mayor wore pirate suits and sailed in bathtubs across the Straight of Georgia (for real?).  Since its release, the album has gathered momentum, putting Apollo Ghosts on the lips of hipsters in the know.
