After a 5 show stint opening for Cold War Kids, frontman for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah—Alec Ounsworth, is setting out on his own headlining tour in support of 2009’s Mo Beauty. The album, which was released in October of last year, has won critical acclaim as well as praise of Ounsworth’s touring band comprised of Matt Sutton, Peter Modavis, Brian Ashby, and Jonas Oesterle.

For those riding Ounsworth’s guitar strings, his ensemble is set to also be shelling out songs from both Flashy Python and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah’s collections.
