Join Neko Case's Choir In Toronto Church

Neko Case will play two Toronto shows in April support of the March 3 release of Middle Cyclone.

The red-haired chanteuse, who recorded part of the album in Toronto and will be in the city on Friday to start promoting it, will perform two all-ages, unlicensed shows at Trinity St. Paul's United Church at 9 p.m. (the doors open two hours earlier) on April 17 and 18. Tickets cost $33.50 and go on sale on Friday through Ticketmaster.

Case and Anti- Records have launched a fundraising campaign for Best Friends Animal Society connected with Middle Cyclone lead single "People Got A Lotta Nerve." The New Pornographers singer is obviously interested in rescuing living things as well as pianos.
