Atlanta’s Manchester Orchestra are hitting the road again in February in support of their third full-length album Mean Everything to Nothing.

Their junior effort features the guys with a heavier, more polished sound that doesn’t stray too far from their past work. Show-goers will be getting more than their money’s worth, with The Features, Chris Staples, and labelmates O’Brother rounding out the bill. Staples will be performing for the first six dates, with Scotland’s Biffy Clyro taking over for the rest.

The 2^nd leg of the tour kicks off on March 19^th in Kansas City.  For fans, presale tickets went on sale late last week via the band’s website.  Sadly, looks like these guys won’t be stopping by San Francisco anytime soon.
