The Weather Station announces her first headlining tour, Jennifer Castle will open

By Will McGuirk

The Weather Station, aka Tamara Lindeman,  will tour Canada as a headliner beginning September 22 in Creemore, Ontario. On her latest album, self-titled, Lindeman takes a turn from the folk to the fuzz but the songwriting remains just a vital and her voice is just a crystal clear. She will be touring with a band comprised of Ben Whiteley on bass, Ian Kehoe  on drums and Will Kidman (Constantines) on guitar and keys. Jennifer Castle will open western dates..

"It feels like a long time coming, to tour my own country as a headline act.  Having played all over the world with this band, it feels like high time to bring it all home," says Lindeman in a press release.  

And I couldn't be more excited to have Jennifer Castle coming along with us.  She's one of the most important people in my musical life - my hero both for her songwriting and her undeniable spirit."

The Weather Station will play the Mod Club in Toronto Sep 29.
