On Fillmore, a group featuring Wilco drummer Glenn Kotche and bassist Darin Grey, will release their new studio album, Extended Vacation, on Nov. 3 through Dead Oceans.

The album will also be released in Japan on Oct. 26 and in Britain on Nov. 2. Extended Vacation will contain seven tracks, including the title track, "Daydreaming So Early" and lead-off number "Checking In," according to Wilco's website.

The album takes the listener "to exotic sonic locations — both real and imagined — resulting in music that is peerless in contemporary composition," according to On Fillmore's MySpace page.

The album will be the group's follow-up to 2004's Sleeps With Fishes. On Fillmore also provided the soundtrack to 2004's Blood Red Earth and the 2006 S&MAN (pronounced Sandman) documentary.

Wilco begin a short North American tour in support of this year's Wilco (The Album) in October. It includes a two-night stand at Toronto's Massey Hall. From there the band will head to Europe.

Here is the track list for Extended Vacation:

"Checking In"
"Master Moon"
"Daydreaming So Early"
"Complications"
"Off The Path"
"Extended Vacation"
"Clearing Out"
