Rapidly gaining a reputation for their fervent live shows, Plants and Animals have recently shared bills in America with The Whigs (February 2008), with Wolf Parade (August 2007), plus Patrick Watson, Akron/Family, Calexico, Iron & Wine, Andrew Bird, and Grizzly Bear in their home country of Canada. Many caught the band during their 3 sets during the 2008 SXSW.

More U.S. dates will be announced for June, including the west coast, after they complete a tour of Europe. The band will continue touring through the summer in Canada (July) and return to the U.S. this fall for a full national tour.
