Baby's first tour was a loop around the West last fall, from Portland to Colorado, down through New Mexico and Arizona, and then back. In style, too -- a 1987 Ford motor home.

"A working man's tour bus," Parson Red Heads singer Evan Way says. "It was good. It was about 15 days. He's a natural born traveler."

"He" is George. George is 4 months old now, and with his dad (Way) and mom (Red Heads drummer Brette Marie Way) and their bandmates getting ready for what looks to be a notably busy 2013, it's a good bet he'll log a few more miles before his first birthday.

Aside from that West Coast tour, the Parson Red Heads, makers of warm, '70s-inspired folk rock, wrapped 2012 at the White Eagle Saloon on New Year's Eve playing, among other things, Weezer's entire "Blue" record.

To kick off 2013, they're revisiting the past. Tuesday, their 2011 full-length record "Yearling," originally released by Portland-based Arena Rock Recording Company, will be re-released in expanded form by North Carolina-based Second Motion Records.

What they're calling the deluxe version of "Yearling" features six more tracks, bringing the total to 17 and clocking in at more than an hour.

Way says Arena Rock's original run was 1,500 copies of the album. When the band sold out of those, they went back to the label to see about a second run, but it wasn't something Arena Rock, which is largely dormant these days, could do.

In March last year, the Red Heads released the six-song EP "Murmurations" on Portland's Timber Carnival Records -- the same six songs that have now been tacked on to "Yearling."

"They were all recorded at the same time," Way says. "I felt like the songs deserved to live with each other."
