Band of Horses recently announced that they’re joining the second annual Railroad Revival lineup this fall. Supporting the release of their new album Mirage Rock – out Sept. 18 – the Charleston-based quintet will accompany Willie Nelson, John C. Reilly and Jamey Johnson in traversing America via “16 vintage, 1940s railcars,” playing at ad-hoc venues near train stations between Oct. 20 and 28. Though that tour isn’t stopping in the Carolinas, Band of Horses will play two N.C. shows with likeminded indie-arena-rockers My Morning Jacket in August. —Sam Baltes
