Tokyo Police Club previously announced their final shows in their hometown of Toronto, ON. Now the band has announced a farewell North American tour this summer. Dates are listed below.

Before saying goodbye, though, the band does have two new singles: "Just A Scratch/Catch Me If You Can," posted below.

Guitarist/keyboardist Graham Wright states:

I got the first demo of these tracks at my parent’s old house, after spending the day helping them pack to move away from the town where I grew up - the town where TPC met and formed. I listened on phone speakers, sitting on the edge of an air mattress in an empty room in an empty house, remembering the countless days and nights spent in garages and basements and bedrooms, writing and jamming and daydreaming about rock and roll glory - becoming a band.

Even in demo form, even before we knew they’d be our last releases as TPC, the songs FELT summative to me, full of everything that made me fall in love with this band in the first place. I hear bits that we might have come up with in the garage back then, and other bits we could never have dreamed up until right now. I hear all the music we ever loved and all the music we ever made - and most importantly, I hear US, the four of us, the hivemind that is TPC, with all its ideas and enthusiasm.

Elephant Shell
Saddle Creek (2008)

Tokyo Police Club's A Lesson In Crime put the band in an awkward position. The seven-song EP gained a substantial amount of praise/coverage for it's less than twenty-minute run time, showing a glimpse of energetic indie pop somewhere between a dance party and a rock out that, despite it's length, made it one of the best releases of 2006.
