The Arcs—Dan Auerbach, Leon Michels, Richard Swift, Homer Steinweiss, and Nick Movshon—along with special guests Mariachi Flor de Toloache, have announced a North American tour for April. Their "West Coast Caravan" kicks off in Vancouver on April 11, followed by several stops on that coast—Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Pomona, and the Coachella festival—as well as shows in Denver, Lawrence, St. Louis, Austin, and New Orleans. See below for all of the currently scheduled shows, or visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

During their East Coast tour late last year, The Arcs stopped by the NPR studios in Washington, DC, to perform a Tiny Desk Concert for Bob Boilen and the staff at NPR and NPR Music. They performed three songs from their debut album, Yours, Dreamily, released last year on Nonesuch: "Pistol Made of Bones," "Stay in My Corner," and "Outta My Mind." The band is "a bundle of talent," says Boilen. You can see for yourself in the set below.

It was a very special Tiny Desk, the series' 500th episode, with past guests including Sam Amidon and Bill Frisell, Lianne La Havas, Natalie Merchant, Nickel Creek, Conor Oberst, Punch Brothers, and Chris Thile and Michael Daves, among others. For more, visit npr.org/tinydeskconcerts.
