Morrissey, whose social media presence long has been limited to an official Facebook page, is now on Twitter, too — well, his management and/or record label is — and that account tonight tweeted a list of U.S. states that presumably mark stops on a soon-to-be-announced tour.
The tweet — only the second from @officialmoz — lists Oregon, Washington, California, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Missouri, Illinois, Michigan, Washington, D.C., New York, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. It comes just a few hours before Morrissey’s brand-new single, “Spent the Day in Bed” (also tweeted), is due to premiere, around 8:40 a.m. London time Tuesday, on BBC 6 Music.
The track is the first single to be released from Morrissey’s upcoming 11th studio album, Low in High School, which is due out Nov. 17 via the singer’s new Etienne Records imprint on the BMG label. The album was recorded in southern France and Rome, and, like its 2014 predecessor World Peace is None of Your Business, it’s produced by Joe Chiccarelli.
The only tour dates announced so far are a pair of concerts, Nov. 10 and 11, at the Hollywood Bowl.
