Joie de Vivre have reformed after a somewhat brief break-up, and are planning a European tour. There are currently no plans for US shows or a tour, but the band writes they are "sure they will come though." In addition, the band plans to release a new album in 2012 on Count Your Lucky Stars Records.

Joie de Vivre last released The North End in 2010, before splitting up earlier this year. You can read the full announcement here.
