Apr 02, 2014 By Laura Studarus The Mountain Goats

John Darnielle and Peter Hughes of The Moutnain Goats are embarking on a two person tour that they’re calling “The Mountain Goats Twin Inhuman Highway Fiends Tour 2014.” Because that’s just the kind of awesome they traffic in. Check out the full run of dates, along with a few Darnielle solo dates, below.

“Last year Peter and I did a couple of duo tours: the U.S. one took us as far west as Chicago, and the European one went all the way out to Barcelona,” says Darnielle of the tour. “We don’t really get a chance to do the duo thing much any more. It is a blast, and it gets us into all-ages rooms, and we get around to a bunch of songs that’ve been lurking in shadowy corners for ages waiting for the bright fuel of the footlights. I would like, therefore, to alert the west coast, my old stomping grounds, that we are stomping your way duo-style for the first time since 2007, and that all the shows are all-ages, and that if the all-ages duo tour from last summer is any indicator, it is going to be a huge party.”
