METRIC is making the move to the big rooms.
The Toronto indie-rock quartet will embark on a Canadian arena tour this fall in support of its new album, Synthetica. The Victoria-to-Toronto trek includes a stop at the MTS Centre on Nov. 17 with Montreal-based pop group Stars.
Tickets for the show go on sale Friday for $40.75 and $56.75 at Ticketmaster.
Metric have been regular visitors to the city over the years, usually playing the Burton Cummings Theatre. This will be the band’s first time headlining an arena tour.
