The Slow Rush deluxe box set will be available starting Feb. 18, while tickets for the tour go on sale Dec. 10

Tame Impala will embark on a headlining tour of North America next spring in continued support of The Slow Rush. The tour features a few scattered festival dates, but runs officially from March 7 when it kicks off in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to March 23 when it wraps in Nashville, Tennessee.

Tickets for the March 2022 arena shows go on sale on Dec. 10 at 10 a.m. local time. The tour features stops in Toronto, Brooklyn, Boston, Hampton, Asheville, and more.

The tour announcement arrives with a new song, “No Choice”. The previously unreleased track was pulled from the forthcoming The Slow Rush deluxe box set, arriving Feb. 18 via Interscope. The set includes B-sides, like “The Boat I Row,” and remixes of the Grammy-nominated 2020 album, including the pre-album single “Patience” in its original and remixed form, and remixes of The Slow Rush.

“Being a personality onstage, that’s something I’ve been growing into,” Kevin Parker told Rolling Stone in 2019. “Saying fuck it and being that person who can rile up the audience. That’s someone I never saw myself as.”

Hit-Boy stepped into a more energetic and party driven sound on his latest single "Franchise Boy," released exclusively through YouTube. The record leans on a smooth and stripped back soul sample while also nodding to Dem Franchise Boyz and their classic track "White Tee." Hit-Boy rides the production effortlessly, delivering confident bars packed with flexes about his success and high end lifestyle. The song blends hints of Jersey club rhythms with touches of Miami bass influence, giving the track an addictive and upbeat feel. "Franchise Boy" feels like a strong preview of what could be another exciting run of music from Hit-Boy.

Release Date: Monday, May 18

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Franchise Boy

N***as had said it was love,
But it wasn't love, I'm really above
The s**t you be talking, I'm floating and walking
In Margiela runners, you won't see them often
