Eddie Vedder Hitting The Road For Short ‘Into The Wild’ Tour

Eddie Vedder scored Sean Penn’s Oscar-snubbed film, “Into The Wild.” The gravely-voiced grunge crooner then released an album of said ‘Wild’ songs (with bonus tracks on ITunes-only edition). While he was snubbed by the Oscars, Vedder did win a Golden Globe for his songwriting efforts.

Now, the flannel-enthusiast will head out on the road for a brief jaunt in support of his “Into The Wild” album that has sold 243,000 copies according to SoundScan. Liam Finn of Crowded House will open the shows.

A live version of Vedder’s “No More” will be the first single from the upcoming soundtrack Body of War: Songs That Inspired an Iraq War Veteran due March 18 via Sire for the documentary, “Body of War.”

Vedder tour dates:
April 2: Vancouver (the Centre)

April 7: Berkeley, Calif. (Zellerbach Auditorium)
April 10: Santa Barbara, Calif. (Arlington Theatre)
