CocoRosie, the eccentric freak-folk duo, has been arrested for an as-of-yet unknown crime, forcing them to cancel a string of North American tour dates. The band apologized publicly on their MySpace page but could not divulge the cause or charges for the arrest.

Sisters Sierra and Bianca Casidy wrote:
