Today, West African-inspired instrumental powerhouse ensemble Toubab Krewe, announced the Hot AF Tour. The 21-show stint will see the quintet dish out their unique sound from September through December of this year.

The Hot AF Tour will span the entire length of the eastern United States from Key West, Fla., to Waterbury, Vt., and is set to kick off at CultureFest in Pipestem, W.Va. on Sept. 8. Their scintillating performances are set to captivate fans with their blend of West African, psych-rock and Appalachian inclinations in cities including Atlanta, Manchester, N.H., New Orleans, Live Oak, Fla., Miami, Ithaca N.Y., and more.

Some tour highlights include an appearance at The Caverns in Pelham, Tenn., as part of Papadosio’s Subterranea event, a Halloween weekend show at the Maple Leaf Bar in New Orleans, two nights at the Green Parrot Bar in Key West and four nights with special guest Shira Elias at the tail end of their tour in Jacksonville, Fla., Charleston, S.C., Raleigh, N.C., and finally Asheville, N.C., which will bring the tour to a close on Dec. 16.
