2012 Best New Artist Grammy winner Bon Iver heads to South Florida!

Indie mainstay and 2012 Best New Artist Grammy Award winning band Bon Iver have announced tour dates for their Spring 2012 trek across the west coast. The tour will cover stops from San Francisco to New Orleans, and all of the dates are tangential to upcoming appearances at Coachella and New Orleans Jazz Fest.

On February 4, the group appeared on NBC’s Saturday Night Live, performing their song “Holocene” off of the 2011 critically acclaimed 2011 album, “Bon Iver”… and, in an unorthodox and entertaining move, the group has released a clip of Justin Vernon working out. According to HTV Hive, the clip will be part of a full-length forthcoming workout DVD. Grab those free weights.

Justin Vernon is also fresh off of a collaboration with Alicia Keys, and has expressed interest in extending his work with singers like Keys into a full songbook.


Bon Iver will be at The Fillmore at the Jackie Gleason Theatre in Miami Beach, Florida on Wednesday June 6, 2012.
