Spoon added July tour dates across North America to their upcoming summer tour. The new leg spans July 7 through July 26 and features support from Bodega at select shows.

The Austin-based band’s July 2022 trek comes between their current U.S. tour and a co-headlining tour with Interpol in August and September. All dates come in support of Lucifer On The Sofa, a studio album released by Spoon in February.

The band began recording their tenth studio album in late 2018, at drummer Jim Eno’s studio with producers Mark Rankin and Justin Raisen. It was nearly finished as of early 2020, but was put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Spoon launches the July leg at Town Ballroom in Buffalo in July 7 ahead of a gig in Albany, New York on July 8 and an appearance at Festival d’ete de Quebec on July 9. From there the band visits London, Ontario on July 11 and hits the Midwest for concerts in Kalamazoo, Michigan on July 12; Madison, Wisconsin on July 13; Urbana, Illinois on July 15 and Iowa City on July 16.

Britt Daniel and company head back to Canada for a series of dates to end the excursion. The swing through The Great White North starts in Winnipeg on July 18 and also includes stops in Regina, Saskatchewan on July 19; Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on July 20; Edmonton on July 22; Calgary on July 23; Victoria, British Columbia on July 25 and Vancouver on July 26.

Ringo Starr has added further dates to his upcoming 2022 North American tour.

The legendary Beatles drummer and his band – Toto‘s Steve Lukather, Men At Work‘s Colin Hay, Warren Ham, Gregg Bissonette, Average White Band‘s Hamish Stuart and Edgar Winter – are set to kick off their tour on May 27 in Ontario, Canada.

Following the tour’s initial announcement which had it wrapping up on June 26, they have confirmed 19 new dates extending the run to October 20, with new shows in Michigan, Washington, New Jersey, California and more.

Tickets for the newly announced shows are now on sale. 

“How great to start at Casino Rama, where we’ve begun 5 All-Starr tours,” Starr said in a statement, “and then to go back to the Beacon, and to the Greek, which was the last show we played in 2019 on our 30th Anniversary tour. I can’t wait to see all our fans and until then I’m sending everyone peace and love and see you soon!”

Starr – who celebrated his 81st birthday last year – last released a solo album, What’s My Name, in 2019. Since its release, Starr has shared two EPs in 2021, Zoom In and Change the World. 

Away from his solo work, Starr was recently enlisted by Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder to perform on his forthcoming solo album ‘Earthling’.

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss have added a West Coast leg to their 2022 international tour in support of their latest covers album, Raise the Roof.

The new string of dates kicks off on August 15th at The Rady Shell in San Diego. It will make stops at venues like the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, and Greek Theatre in Los Angeles before closing out at Austin’s Moody Amphitheater on September 4th. 

Raise the Roof served as the follow-up to their 2007 blockbuster covers album, Raising Sand, and is filled with covers of classic blues, country, folk, and soul music originally sung by the likes of Merle Haggard and The Everly Brothers.

When it first came out, Plant said this about the album:

“I just hope people hear it. These days you find out that people you know very well have made records that you didn’t know about. The game has changed so much. But,” he concludes more brightly, “I’m sure that if they hear this, they’ll realize that there’s people still alive in it, that we’re still alive inside the vinyl, chirping away like a couple of little bluebirds.”

The last time Plant and Krauss toured together was in 2009, following their first collaboration, the Grammy-winning Raising Sand. The very long-awaited follow-up to that album, Raise the Roof, also produced by T Bone Burnett, came out in November.

The musicians who will take part in the tour have not yet been announced. Burnett toured as part of the band in the late 2000s, but it’s not known whether he might take up those duties again for this resumption.

Mac DeMarco is heading out on a US tour this fall following a European leg and California run of shows this summer.

The Pepperoni Playboy’s new dates kick off in Phoenix on November 2nd and will hit cities in the South and Midwest including Dallas, New Orleans, Memphis, Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, and Milwaukee. The tour runs through November, with the final two shows stretching west to Denver on November 25th and Las Vegas on November 27th. 

In a statement, the indie star shared: 

“I’ve been driving around North America for the last couple months in my Toyota, making five easy hot dogs. I’ve been to a lot of new places, a lot of old ones. Seen a lot of old friends, made some new ones too. Keep your eyes peeled, maybe I’ll pop up in your zone soon.”

DeMarco will be plenty busy this spring and summer. After first opening for The Strokes at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on April 6th, he’ll hit the road for European legs in June and September with a string of California dates sandwiched in between that will showcase his recent Mac’s Record Label signee Vicky’s Farewell. He’ll also be giving a special performance at Seattle’s Day In Day Out Festival to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his Rock and Roll Night Club EP and the album 2 in August. 

His most album, Here Comes the Cowboy, was released in 2019.

In October 2021, DeMarco returned to live performances following a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. His return to the stage was marked by changes to his live band, with the departure of longtime members Joe McMurray, Andrew White and Jon Lent, and the addition of Darryl Johns (bass) and JD Beck (drums). Andy White confirmed his departure shortly afterwards stating: “Mac’s an old friend, life is long, and no one knows the future. I’m incredibly stoked to see his new line-up soon as I can. I loved his band before I was in it. I loved playing in it, and I will always look forward to what our bud is putting together in the future.

Tickets for upcoming Mac DeMarco shows are available here.

Machine Gun Kelly has announced details of a big world tour behind his new album ‘Mainstream Sellout’.

The rapper-turned-pop-punk star’s new record is following on from a string of collaborative singles – ‘Ay’ with Lil Wayne, ‘Emo Girl’ with Willow Smith, and ‘maybe’ ft. Bring Me The Horizon.

At the start of June, Kelly will begin the North American leg of the ‘Mainstream Sellout’ tour, which will see him supported by Avril Lavigne, Travis Barker, WILLOW, PVRIS and more.

A UK and European tour then begins in September, running through to October and featuring a London date at Wembley Arena.

‘Mainstream Sellout’ was originally due to be called ‘Born With Horns’, but had its name changed earlier this year. Previously, Kelly and the album’s executive producer Travis Barker had both got tattoos of its original title.

The follow-up to 2020’s ‘Tickets To My Downfall’ is set to be “more guitar-heavy” and lyrically “deeper”, MGK said last year.

“Every album is a juxtaposition of the last album. So I went and studied ‘Tickets’, and I heard the bright sound that I had, and for this album I just turned the lights off.”

He continued: “I’m not scared anymore, there’s nothing holding me back from being my true self – and my true self can’t be silenced, can’t be restrained. It’s a force, it’s like a hurricane. Can’t stop that, it just goes until it feels like stopping, and I don’t feel like stopping anytime soon.”
