Josh Abbott Band announces tour
The "Until MY Voice Goes Out Tour" will run through November with stops in Austin, Nashville, Las Vegas and New York. Josh Abbott Band will also release its new album, "Until My Voice Goes Out," later this summer to coincide with the tour. No release date was announced.
