The Apache Relay will embark on an extensive North American tour this fall, including shows supporting Trampled by Turtles and The Wild Feathers, with several stops in Indianapolis. See below for complete tour details.

The tour is in celebration of the band’s acclaimed new self-titled album, which is out now on So Recordings. Of the music, Rolling Stone asserts, “… echoes classic Gamble and Huff productions before folding out into a classic Spector-ish wall of sound,” while the Seattle Times calls it, “an 11-song collection full of satisfying, layered moments.”

Formed by chance in a college dorm, The Apache Relay is Michael Ford Jr. (vocals), Mike Harris (guitar, vocals), Brett Moore (keys, guitar, mandolin), Kellen Wenrich (fiddle, keys), Ben Ford (guitar, vocals) and Stephen Smith (drums). Since their debut, the band has opened for Grammy award-winning Mumford & Sons and performed at multiple festivals including Bonnaroo, the Newport Folk Festival, Firefly Music Festival, Voodoo Music Experience, Bristol Rhythm and Roots and Gentlemen of the Road.
