PRIMUS and COHEED AND CAMBRIA have announced that they will be teaming up this summer for an extensive 25-date summer tour, kicking off in Redding, CA on Friday, July 12. The tour will be supported by GUERILLA TOSS, TOO MANY ZOOZ and FISHBONE, who will be opening for the headlining acts throughout the summer. The tour will follow “Sessanta”, a series of unique performances featuring PRIMUS, PUSCIFER and A PERFECT CIRCLE, celebrating the 60th birthday of Maynard James Keenan. PRIMUS has also announced a limited run of additional headlining tour dates for the summer, including stops in Asheville, North Carolina; Memphis, Tennessee; and Austin, Texas.

Fans can elevate their night out with PRIMUS as an official VIP this summer. The Fat Bastard and Lucky Bastard VIP Experiences include a show ticket, early entry into the venue, an invitation to the exclusive pre-show question-and-answer session with the band, and a signed VIP tour poster. Fans can opt for the Fat Bastard Front Row Super VIP Experience for a seat in the front row of the venue (only available in select markets).

The latest tour announcement follows a busy few years for PRIMUS, including the release of the “Conspiranoid” EP, their first new music in over five years. The band also completed their extensive “A Tribute To Kings” tour across North America, where they performed RUSH‘s “A Farewell To Kings” in its entirety, alongside a set of their own music, to sold-out crowds. Most recently, Claypool toured the country with the FEARLESS FLYING FROG BRIGADE for the first time in more than 20 years, performing PINK FLOYD‘s “Animals” in its entirety, as well as other rarities. Claypool also delved into his solo legacy with the release of the “Adverse Yaw: The Prawn Song Years” box set, featuring remastered audio from his notable projects, including the FEARLESS FLYING FROG BRIGADE and COLONEL CLAYPOOL’S BUCKET OF BERNIE BRAINS.
“The music of PRIMUS has had a creative influence on me and it is a huge honor to get to share the stage with them,” says COHEED AND CAMBRIA frontman Claudio Sanchez.
Sanchez also announced today that his latest comic book series from the acclaimed “The Amory Wars” saga, “No World For Tomorrow” (from Boom! Studios) has set a release date. Issue No. 1 hits comic shops on May 8, 2024.
