Despite calling Portland, Oregon home, instrumental rockers Grails have announced their first Midwest dates in a short upcoming tour aptly named the Take Refuge Tour. The band has traditionally only toured Europe, but in recent years has shifted its attention towards the East Coast. Now Alex Hall and company are looking to take over the Midwest in support of their latest release, Take Refuge in Clean Living. In addition to their Midwest debut, Grails will also make several East Coast appearances where they will be backed by Canadian rockers, Nadja. For a complete list of the Take Refuge Tour dates see below.
