Philadephia rock outfit The Districts recently announced its new album, A Flourish and a Spoil, and now it looks like the boys will hit the road in February in support of the effort. The new album, as Consequence of Sound points out, will be out Feb. 10, and the band will celebrate with a show at New York's Bowery Ballroom before hitting the road.

The group, originally from Lititz, Pa., will have two semi-homecomings during the jaunt. On Feb. 13, the band will stop at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, Pa., a mere 10 miles from their hometown. They will then head to Philly, where they're based out of now, for a Feb. 14 show at Union Transfer. The trek will wrap up in San Diego at The Casbah.

The Districts also premiered a new single, "4th and Roebling."

Over the summer, guitarist Mark Larson announced that he would be leaving the band to attend college. Pat Cassidy, his replacement, has been playing with them since August.

"It was definitely quite a bummer, but at the same time, we've been friends for a long time," frontman Rob Grote told Paste about Larson's departure. "While it sucks to not be playing with our best friend who we started the band with, you just have to do what makes you happy." 

Pine Barons will be opening for The Districts on the tour.
