Alt country troubadour and Yep Roc Records artist Robbie Fulks is taking a short break from his weekly gig at The Hideout in Chicago in late January to hit the road for a limited number of dates.

The first stop on that run is at the Casbah in Durham on Friday, January 28. Tickets are available now via etix for $12. An opener hasn't been announced yet.

While Fulks is well known for his old-school country sound, on his latest album Happy, released in March 2010, is very different. He dedicated the album to the late Michael Jackson, and half of the album are covers Jackson songs. Stream Fulks' slow, moody version of "Billie Jean" below.
