As of now, Matchbox Twenty has just five gigs lined up for the rest of this year.
Thankfully, one of them will be in New Jersey.
On Thursday, June 27, Rob Thomas and co. will bring their post-grunge alt rock to Newark’s Prudential Center along with special guest Andy Grammer.
And, yes, based on our findings, they play the hits. At a recent gig in New Zealand, the band performed “How Far We’ve Come,” “3 AM,” “Unwell,” “Push,” “Bright Lights” and cuts from their excellent 2023 album “Where The Light Goes” according to Set List FM.
If that sounds like the show for you, it isn’t too late to buy last-minute tickets.
At the time of publication, last-minute tickets start at $71 before fees on Vivid Seats.
Floor seats can be found for as low as $114 before fees.

Matchbox Twenty new music
This past year, Rob Thomas and his backing band dropped their fifth studio album “Where The Light Goes.”
Coming in at a tight 45 minutes, the band veers away from the straightforward power pop they’ve become known for.
Instead, Matchbox Twenty embraces the orchestral, twinkling pianos, afrobeats and duets.
The end result is something unlike anything they’ve released before.
Standout tracks include the joyous album opener “Friends,” the hypnotic bop “The Queen Of New York,” and the deceptively simple “I Know Better.”
If you want to listen to the record for yourself, you can find it here.
Andy Grammer
Grammer, 40, is a headliner in his own right.
In addition to opening for Matchbox Twenty, the soulful pop singer is embarking on a tour of his own that will send him to venues all over North America up until October.
If you want to hear the anthemic “Don’t Give Up On Me,” foot stompin’ “Honey, I’m Good” and silky smooth “Fresh Eyes” live, grab Andy Grammer tickets here.
