This fall, Flatfoot 56 will add to their consistently non-stop tour schedule with a national trek of dates supporting Street Dogs that kicks off in Jacksonville, FL on September 16. The tour will bring the band's live intensity to major clubs in every city across the nation including stops in New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Denver, Seattle, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Phoenix and beyond (complete dates and details follow.)
"Our live show is a blur of speed, camaraderie, and comedy," explains front man Tobin Bawinkel. "We really try to create a positive environment every time we play so people feel comfortable and can let loose. It's an experience that everyone is a part of."
That live experience also includes an improvised set list, an array of seamless instrument juggling (from guitar to mandolin and bagpipes and back around again), an awe inspiring crowd participation "wall of death" mosh pit while showcasing the band's grab bag of musical influences from Oi! and punk to folk and traditional Irish Celtic sounds.
