The NYC-based rock/fusion quartet TAUK will open for festival legends, Perpetual Groove on select dates of their Fall Fend For Your Life US tour. TAUK will join the tour with a one-off set in Richmond, VA on Sept 6th followed up by the band’s highly-anticipated return to their hometown jam/rock mecca, Brooklyn Bowl on September 21st and 22nd. More dates inside!
Other highlights of TAUK’s Fall includes joining the lineup of Yonder Mountain String Band’s Harvest Music Festival to be held October 11-13th in Ozark, Arkansas. And though it’s not on the tour schedule below, TAUK is also listed to play CMJ Music Marathon 2012 this year (Oct. 16-20) as well, though dates, times and venues are still TBA. If it is a concrete booking, the dates will most likely sit somewhere between their Nashville and Birmingham dates.
