Vancouver's Lions In The Street are gearing up for their first Canadian tour and hoping to turn more people on to their '70s-influenced rock.

The band's Cat Got Your Tongue EP is available for free on their website, and they've used their DIY ethos and know-how to produce some homemade videos as well. The five-song EP was recorded in a dingy basement with some dubious recording equipment, but it effectively reflects their give-it-to-the-man, long-haired brand of rock.

LITS have previously played with Jet, Kings Of Leon, The Dirtbombs and The Zutons, just to name a few. This tour will include a performance as part of Saskatoon's JunoFest.

Here are Lions In The Street's tour dates:

March 26 Ottawa, ON @ Zaphod Beeblebrox
March 27 Toronto, ON @ Horseshoe Tavern
March 30 Winnipeg, MB @ Royal Albert
March 31 Saskatoon, SK @ Walkers
April 1 Saskatoon, SK @ Roxy
April 2 Calgary, AB @ Hi Fi w/Priestess
April 3 Jasper, AB @ Pete's Pub
April 4 Kelowna, BC @ Doc Willoughbys
April 14 Vancouver, BC @ Media Club
