Dragonette Tour Coming

Toronto based dance-pop act Dragonette have finished work on their upcoming album, Fixin To Thrill, and will be setting out on a North American tour in support of the record.

Fixin To Thrill is due to drop this fall, although no release date has been announced.

In an Aug. 4 MySpace blog entry, Dragonette wrote that fans should "[expect] lots of new songs and old chestnuts, flashing lights, lewd jokes and general merriment."

Ruby Jean and The Thoughtful Bees will open the Canadian dates of the tour. You can see Martina Sorbara and company on these dates:
