Grouplove, which was all over the radio with the hit “Tongue Tied” a couple of years back, announced its spring 2014 tour and there is a big hole right around the time of a certain music festival in the desert.

Grouplove’s tour kicks off March 20 in Cincinnati and runs through April 30 with a show in Kansas City, Mo. However, after an April 7 date in Houston, there aren’t any more dates until Phoenix on April 23.

The 2014 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will take place April 11-13 and April 18-20 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio.

Grouplove recently released a second album (new material is always a plus to land a Coachella spot) and the band’s set was well-received back in 2012, and they probably did the most set decoration of any band in a tent, complete with fake plants.
