Indie stalwarts Built to Spill have announced an expansive 2024 tour, which doubles as a celebratory run honoring the 30th anniversary of their second studio LP, 1994’s There’s Nothing Wrong With Love. Fittingly, the band, which formed in Boise, Idaho, will kick off their commemorative march with a hometown gig on August 9 at Shrine Social Club before continuing with a coast-to-coast trek.
After night one, Built to Spill will take their jaunt through the Pacific Northwest, ricocheting Washington and Oregon before a stint in Big Sky Country. The band’s mapped-out route continues with an influx of Midwest dates, including a two-night stand at Chicago’s Metro venue. A late August date in Detroit marks the regional conclusion of the aforementioned tour leg.
On Aug. 30, Built to Spill arrives in Pittsburgh before a date in The Garden State at Asbury Lanes. Following evenings in Maine and a Pennsylvania return, the band will take the stage at New York’s Webster Hall on Sept. 7. Ultimately, the band will drop down to Southern states and perform in the Carolinas, Georgia, Tennessee (including a Sept. 16 show at Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl), Texas, and Oklahoma.
On the heels of their Omaha stand, Built to Spill will perform in a Denver concert slated for the Ogden Theatre prior to an Arizona follow-up and eventual California conclusion. In the Golden State, Built to Spill will start in San Diego, Calif., on Sept. 25 and Los Angeles the next evening for a crawl up the coastline, stopping in San Francisco for a two-night stand at The Fillmore. The tour will come to a proper close on Sept. 29 in Sacramento, Calif.
On the impending tour, Built to Spill has extended the road invitation to cellist John McMahon, who initially appeared on There’s Nothing Wrong With Love. The 1994 set, originally produced by Phil Ek, climbed the Pitchfork chart to No. 24 on its Top 100 Albums of the ‘90s, a sonic timestamp effervescent of the era.
Tickets go on sale tomorrow, April 5 at 10 a.m. ET.
