There’s a new venue in town and it has already played host to The Love Language, Megafaun, The Old Ceremony, Gillian Welch and Bowerbirds. In February, we can add The Mountain Goats to that impressive lineup.

In support of their Merge debut All Eternals Deck, the Goats are hitting the road with Nurses in January for a tour that will bring them to the Haw River Ballroom in Saxapahaw Feb. 4. Tickets go on sale Dec. 2 at 7 a.m. for $19.

The Durham-based trio says fans can look forward to hearing some new tunes on this tour.

“[W]e got together and decided to tour the new songs before we even record them,” frontman John Darnielle said.

“I don’t guess that we’ll be touring all 10 of the new songs I’ve written for the next album, but be advised that if you’re the sort of person who wants as many surprises as possible when you hear a new album, you should tread lightly around recordings of these shows, because we’re not going to be holding the best ones back for the album release like people tend to do now.”

The Haw River Ballroom is a gorgeous 700-capacity venue situated in the Dye House of Saxapahaw’s Historic Cotton Mill.
