Tampa Bay fans are going to have to travel if they want to see Australian indie-rock export Tame Impala.

On Tuesday, the band — which is already booked to play Coachella, Shaky Knees, Corona Capital, Boston Calling and Barcelona’s Primavera Festival — announced new North American dates, and none of them are coming to the Bay area.
