Meanwhile, the band has announced their first batch of 2018 tour dateskicking off January 17 in Georgia, weaving their way all the way across the country, wrapping in Seattle March 10 (with support from Horseshoes & Hand Grenades, Dangermuffin and The Last Revel). The Stringdusters are currently on the road in the Midwest and will hit New York City's Irving Plaza Friday, November 17 (full itinerary below). In a recent live review, Live For Live Music said, "Not only are all five members virtuosic at their instrument of choice, four out of five confidently step into the role of lead vocalist and can croon and harmonize with the best of them."

The band will perform two co-headlining shows at UC Berkeley: with Keller Williams and Grateful Grass December 28 and Leftover Salmon December 29.
