Symphonic pop, California rock and Chicago swagger coming to the Cradle

One of the best tours of the fall just added a stop at the Cat's Cradle. The Polyphonic Spree, Rooney and The Redwalls will play the Cradle on November 13.

The Polyphonic Spree are touring in support of their third album, The Fragile Army, released in June. The Spree played the Cat's Cradle in May, just before the release of the album to preview new songs and play old favorites. Check out the review here.

Rooney is also touring in support of a new album. Their second full-length, Calling the World, was released in July. Just like The Polyphonic Spree, Rooney stopped by the Cat's Cradle in June, just prior to the release of their new record, to play a headline show in the midst of a tour with Fergie. Check out the review here.

Last but certainly not least, Chicago's The Redwalls will start the show. The Redwalls will release their third album, a self-titled record, October 23 via their new label Mad Dragon. The band's last record, De Nova, was released via Captiol Records, but like most good bands, they have moved to an indie to kick-start their career.

Both The Polyphonic Spree and Rooney pulled sizable yet very different crowds earlier this year while all the local colleges were out for the summer. It's safe to say that this show will most likely sell out, so get your tickets early.
