From there, the tour will stop inOakland, Lake Tahoe and Salt Lake City before back-to-back nights at the Belly Up in Aspen and theFillmore Auditorium in Denver. Next, they'll hit the Midwest with stops in Lincoln, Minneapolis, Des Moines, Milwaukee, Chicago and Grand Rapids before making their way down the east coast hittingBuffalo, Portland and Providence. STS9 will make their debut at the legendary Capitol Theatre in PortChester, NY for 2 shows over Presidents Day weekend and then will wrap the tour with stops inWashington, DC, Norfolk, Asheville and Knoxville. See below for the full list of tour dates. Fan club tickets for the Winter Tour went on sale this morning (11/7) exclusively at www.sts9store.com. General tickets will go on-sale starting this Saturday, November 9 with select shows available tomorrow Friday, November 8 orThursday, November 14 (see below for specific details).

To close out such a tremendous year, STS9 will be returning to the Mayan Riviera for the 2013 edition ofMayan Holidaze at the Now Sapphire Resort in Puerto Morelos, Mexico December 16-20 along with friends Umphrey's McGee and the Disco Biscuits and special guests Big Gigantic, Papadosio, Cherub, Orchard Lounge and DrFameus. From there, STS9--hailed as "one of the country's most intriguing, innovative outfits around" by XLR8R--will perform 5 shows at The Tabernacle in Atlanta December 27-31 to officially ring in 2014. Once this New Year's run wraps, the band will have sold-out The Tabernacle over 30 times, marking the most performances at that venue by any band.

STS9-Hunter Brown (guitar/keys), Jeffree Lerner (percussion), David Murphy (bass/synths), David Phipps (keyboards) and Zach Velmer (drums)-is currently touring with their largest production ever, earning them rave reviews throughout 2013. Building off the groundbreaking 2012 "Great Cycle Spectacle" design, the band is leaving no stone unturned when it comes to delivering one of the most visually stunning shows on the road today. As noted by Jayme Barouch from MOTORCITYBLOG, "the light sequencing and display rivaled some of the best that I've seen from masters of the electronic lightshow likeDaft Punk, Amon Tobin and Deadmau5" (4/15/13).

About STS9:

Formed in Atlanta over a decade ago, STS9 has risen to the forefront of the international music scene. Consistently ranked among Pollstar's list of top-grossing touring acts, the quintet has sold out the legendaryRed Rocks Amphitheatre (recently completing their 10th consecutive year headlining the famed venue), performed at all the top US festivals, sold out shows across the country as an acoustic set-up in opera houses or as an electronic act in amphitheatres and have raised significant amounts of money towards activism efforts (including $150,000 to the Make It Right Foundation, paving the way to rebuild a house in the Lower 9th Ward of New Orleans). In light of the massive Colorado flooding that recently damaged the state, the group raised over $12,000 for Colorado Flood Relief, split between Conscious Alliance, Flatirons Habitat for Humanity and the Boulder Flood Relief to help those directly affected from the disaster. STS9also run their own record label, 1320 Records, whose goal is to bring the music to the people in the most conscious, unique, innovative and savvy ways possible to lessen the distance between artists and fans. Their latest studio EP, When The Dust Settles, was released in 2011 and debuted at #1 on the iTunes Electronic Chart and landed them in Billboard's Top 25 album chart. Look for a new album, the band's 12th, to be released in 2014.
