Modest Mouse have announced a new North American tour with The Cribs this spring. The two groups have a strong connection: in 2008, Johnny Marr completed his touring duties with Modest Mouse and left the line-up to join The Cribs, with whom he played for three years. Marr responded to the tour announcement on Twitter, calling the news "killer". The Cribs were scheduled to hold their own headline North American tour now, but cancelled the dates due to concerns over COVID-19. They updated fans on their plans to hold their own shows in the continent on Twitter, writing: "For those asking – yeah, we still intend on rescheduling our US/Canada headline shows for sometime later this year." Modest Mouse and The Cribs North American tour will kick-off in Baltimore in April, concluding at New York's Summerstage in Central Park venue on June 8. Modest Mouse will headline on all dates, with The Cribs in support. Tickets go on sale at 10am local time on Friday (February 1
