Jonathan Richman has announced a run of west coast shows with drummer Tommy Larkins. These eight shows, including a three-night stand at The Mint in Los Angeles, will round out a successful year of touring in the U.S., Canada, U.K. & Europe.

Upon wrapping up these dates, Richman will continue to work on his forthcoming 2010 album with Larkins. This collection of songs will be a follow-up to his Vapor Records release Because Her Beauty Is Raw And Wild (2008), a moving portrait of love and loss from one of modern music's most original artists. The album featured a newly recorded version of “Old World," The Modern Lovers 1976 classic, as well as a cover of Leonard Cohen's “Here It Is". Other stand-out tracks include “As My Mother Lay Lying," “When We Refuse To Suffer" and the playful title track.
