The summer just became a whole lot better as the Smashing Pumpkins announced their North American tour. They are kicking off their tour with Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds and AFI as a special guest on 8 August at BB&T Pavilion in Camden, New Jersey. Their 16-city trek will hit Toronto, Detroit, Chicago, Houston and more before it concludes on 31 August at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, Calif.
Smashing Pumpkins recently toured for their Shiny And Oh So Bright Tour in summer 2018, which sold over 300,000 tickets across North America. They performed the material from their previous five albums in sold-out arenas including The Forum and Madison Square Garden. The tour was the band’s first in nearly 20 years to feature Billy Corgan, Jimmy Chamberlin and James Iha, alongside Jeff Schroeder, bassist Jack Bates and keyboardist Katie Cole.
Smashing Pumpkins released Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun. in November 2018 and features hits like “Solara”, “Silvery Sometimes” and “Knights of Malta”.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds is the solo project from former Oasis guitarist and singer Noel Gallagher. His third album under the name Who Built the Moon? was released in 2017 and was certified gold in less than two weeks of its release and marked his tenth consecutive chart-topping studio album in the UK, something that no other artist has ever achieved.
Meanwhile, AFI’s latest release came in late 2018 with the arrival of the EP The Missing Man, which featured the singles “Get Dark” and “Trash Bat.”
Tickets are already up for grabs so hurry up and choose the city closest to you. Don’t miss the performance of one of the few contemporary rock stars left.
