Danish electro folksters Efterklang have finally announced their first-ever American tour, and we couldn’t be more excited. We’ve been hot on the heels of this collective ever since they remixed “Campfire” on Grizzly Bear’s Horn of Plenty: The Remixes album a few years ago. Since then, we’ve rapaciously devoured every Efterklang song we can get our hands on. Their Múm-like droning instrumentation makes their music perfect for that awesome time of day right before you’re about to fall asleep from utter exhaustion but you still have to send a couple of emails or whatever, and you desperately need a piece of music to carry you through the next hour of your life. We posted the tour dates after the jump, and here are some streams of a couple of songs of the band’s 2007 album, Parades.

Stream: Efterklang - Him Poe Poe

Stream: Efterklang - Cutting Ice to Snow (Hulk remix)
