NEW YORK — Pavement, one of the most influential indie rock bands of the ’90s, will reunite.

The band’s label, Matador Records, announced the reunion Thursday, confirming long-rumored plans. Pavement will reconvene for a tour to begin Sept. 21, 2010, in New York.

Pavement broke up in 2000. Several of its members have since released solo material, most notably its lead singer and songwriter, Stephen Malkmus.
