Neko Case to tour, make jokes on an upcoming episode of @Midnight

Neko Case has announced a run of North American tour dates, including stops at New York's Governors Ball and the Coachella festival. Her full run of dates is below, but for those who can’t make it to any of them, there are a couple more opportunities to see or hear Case’s chatting and/or singing face in the near future.

This Saturday, Feb. 1, Case will appear on Garrison Keillor’s long-running hoedown A Prairie Home Companion, then stop by Conan on Feb. 3, and pop up on public radio show Wits on Feb. 7. But perhaps Case’s most interesting upcoming appearance comes Feb. 6, when she’ll be a panelist on Chris Hardwick’s Comedy Central show @Midnight. While Case is certainly funny on Twitter, that guest spot should give her a chance to show off her joke-telling skills live (or live to tape, at least). Last night’s episode of @Midnight boasted an almost-reunion of the cast of The State,—so, needless to say, she’s got big, pudding-filled, porcupine quill-covered shoes to fill.
