On Thursday at the North Star Bar in Philadelphia, Perpetual Groove will begin a brief late August tear through the northeast. From here the band will return to its home state of Georgia to embark on what it is calling the It Starts Where It Ends Tour. The first show is Friday September 2 at Athens’ Georgia Theater and from here the group will traverse the country (and a portion of the Pacific Ocean on board the Xingolati cruise) before wrapping up the year, back at the Georgia Theatre from December 29-31.
