Construction is nearing completion! As Perpetual Groove looks toward the Spring of 2009, we are very excited to announce the final leg of dates for The Thunder Construction 2009 Tour, which began nearly five months ago when the band hit the road full time, for the first time, with newest member John Hruby. After beginning work on their next studio recording, the band will be popping out of the Southeast for a run up the Eastern seaboard with a quick return South before heading North again to visit the Midwest. Perpetual Groove will wrap up the Spring with their annual Memorial Day Weekend Festival, Amberland, in Lafayette, GA at the beautiful Cherokee Farms.
