Vandoliers will be visiting Europe for their first time as part of their 2020 touring plans. The Dallas-Fort Worth act will be venturing far and wide from their native Texas so it seems pretty apt that they’ve taken the chance to cover The Proclaimers classic ‘I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)’ which is released today on all digital platforms. The UK dates include stops at The Walled Garden and Maverick Festivals. More about Vandoliers including those tour dates follows:
Texas country punks Vandoliers are following their label debut full-length album Forever with the release of a single, a cover of The Proclaimers' uber-catchy "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)". Rolling Stone Country premiered the song today (HERE) saying, "For their new single, the Dallas-Fort Worth group Vandoliers further broaden their palate, transforming a Nineties one-hit-wonder into something unexpectedly relevant... It’s Nineties nostalgia shot through with nonconformist spirit."
