Mike Herrera’s Tumbledown Gets Vinyl Release On Paper + Plastick

Mike Herrera (MxPx) has joined forces with Paper + Plastick Records for the vinyl release of his first solo release, Mike Herrera’s Tumbledown.  The album was originally released digitally and on CD in 2009 through End Sounds.  This vinyl edition features hand-screened covers by noted tattoo artist (and Van’s Warped Tour artist) Oliver Peck, and includes the bonus track “Back Of My Mind.”

In celebration of the release, the Evergreen State band is playing a number of local send-off shows (see dates below) before vocalist/guitarist Mike Herrera heads to South America for a run of solo dates. The ten day stretch brings Herrera back to Brazil and Argentina (sans MxPx), but finds him exploring Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru for the first time, playing both MxPx and Tumbledown songs. Eager North American fans won’t have to fly south to catch Herrera, as a Tumbledown US tour will be announced later this year.
