Boston rock vets Pixies recently announced plans to embark on a headlining North American trek in 2023. The band will hit the streets starting May 4th in Oakland, CA, with shows happening in AZ, NM, CO, and NV, along with a gig at ‘Kilby Block Party’ in UT. All dates are listed below.
Here’s more info from the official announcement, “The tour is in support of the band’s latest album, Doggerel, a mature yet visceral record of gruesome folk, ballroom pop and brutal rock haunted by the ghosts of affairs and indulgences, driven wild by cosmic forces and envisioning digital afterlives where no God has provided one. The album was released on September 30, 2022 (BMG) to tremendous reviews.”
They add, “As will be the case on these upcoming dates, every Pixies’ show will be different from those they played before and those they will play down the line. Prior to every tour, the Pixies rehearse 90-100 songs from their extensive catalogue, and “the next song” is determined just before its first note is played. Concertgoers can expect the band to perform some of their most beloved and iconic Pixies songs, as well as tracks from ‘Doggerel’.”
