Kings of Leon are heading back on the road this summer for a 31-city tour of North America, continuing to support their fourth and most recent album, Only By the Night, which elevated the band to mainstream success and helped the Followill boys win a bunch of Grammy Awards, including Record of the Year and Best Rock Song. The tour gets under way in Atlantic City on June 5; they will also appear at Bonnaroo on June 11.
