The 88 Books Dates With B-52s, 311 and Matt Costa

.
(PR) Los Angeles-based band The 88 announced today a spring tour which includes opening for the B-52s, 311 and Matt Costa in support of their most recent CD, Not Only� But Also, released last fall.

Tracks from Not Only�But Also have made waves on television, video games and online, continuing a trend The 88 began on their prior releases. Lead track �Coming Home� was heard in the premiere episode of 90210, while Gossip Girl showcased the piano-driven rocker �It�s A Lot�. The super-charged �Sons And Daughters� is a challenge to Rock Band 2 gamers.

And in keeping with their DIY roots, their unique video for �Coming Home�, in which they spent the bulk of the video�s budget on free fuel for passing motorists at a local gas station, was featured on Spin.com and Yahoo�s �Who�s Next�.
