My Jerusalem are excited to hit the road as support to The Sounds on their tour celebrating the ten year anniversary of their classic debut album Dying To Say This To You. The tour kicks off today in Salt Lake City and makes stops nationwide including stops in Chicago (11/20 @ Metro), New York City (11/22 @ Brooklyn's Warsaw and 11/23 at Irving Plaza), Austin, TX (12/7 at Emo's) and two dates in Los Angeles (12/13 & 12/14 at The Belasco Theatre). My Jerusalem recently wrapped a string of dates with Eliot Sumner and a stint with The Psychedelic Furs. Full tour dates are below.

"Now that everyone's had a moment to taste 'A Little Death' (Stream here via Noisey), I can't wait to bring it back to life in the clubs and theaters we're hitting," says Jeff Klein. "We've taken great care to make sure the live show presents the new songs with the intense, heady cocktail of romance and violence they deserve. I can't fing wait to leave it on the stage every night."

Though My Jerusalem has been kicking around in some capacity since 2010, 'A Little Death' is the first album with a solidified lineup. Previously, the band had been more of a collective, with contributions from Klein's revolving door of friends from previous projects, Gutter Twins and The Twilight Singers, and who had also played in bands like Cursive, Okkervil River and the Polyphonic Spree. Now, with a full-time lineup of members including Grant Van Amburgh (drums), Kyle Robarge (bass), and Jon Merz (guitar, keys, horns), "My Jerusalem is a true band," Klein says. Alongside standout tracks like the high-energy "Rabbit Rabbit" and the slowed down banger "No One Gonna Give You Love," A Little Death is an album that pays homage to a classic era of rock and roll, one that lacked pretension and focused on honesty in songwriting.
