The tour will be a larger-than-life, career-spanning celebration of one of the biggest musical acts of all time and some of the most important albums in history. This year marks the 30th anniversary of GREEN DAY‘s 1994 diamond-certified album “Dookie” and the 20th anniversary of 2004’s juggernaut “American Idiot”. Each a cultural phenomenon in its own right, these albums have remained at the forefront of punk culture since their release. With blazing guitars and electrifying vocals, GREEN DAY are ready to bring their mind-blowing collection of hits to stadiums across the country, along with plenty of additions from their newly announced album, “Saviors”.
GREEN DAY began dropping hints about “Saviors” at a surprise show at Las Vegas’s Fremont Country Club, surrounded by a crowd of 800 die-hard fans. During their Las Vegas takeover, which also included commanding headline performances at When We Were Young festival, the band debuted two killer new tracks: the first single “The American Dream Is Killing Me” and the brand new “Look Ma, No Brains!”, out today. Watch the accompanying video below, directed by Ryan Baxley and Brendan Walter. Fans got another chance to hear the new music during GREEN DAY‘s headlining Amazon Music Live concert series performance on October 26, which included the two releases along with crowd favorites from their extensive discography.

Recorded in London and Los Angeles, “Saviors” is the latest powerful collaboration between GREEN DAY and Grammy-winning producer Rob Cavallo, whose notable previous work with GREEN DAY includes two of the band’s most iconic albums, 1994’s “Dookie” and 2004’s “American Idiot”.
Formed in 1986 in Berkeley, California, GREEN DAY is one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time, with more than 75 million records sold worldwide and 10 billion cumulative audio/visual streams. The five-time Grammy Award-winning Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductees released their breakout album “Dookie” in 1994, which sold over 10 million copies and achieved diamond status, is widely credited with popularizing and reviving mainstream interest in punk rock, catapulting a career-long run of No. 1 hit singles. Entertainment Weekly calls GREEN DAY “the most influential band of their generation,” while Rolling Stone attests “GREEN DAY have inspired more young bands to start than any act this side of KISS, and that doesn’t seem to be changing.” In 2004, GREEN DAY released the rock opera “American Idiot” which captured the nation’s attention, selling more than eight million copies in the U.S. alone and taking home the Grammy Award for “Best Rock Album”. Mojo declared “It’s exhilarating stuff, the kind of record that sets new parameters as to what is possible from a punk rock’n’roll band in the 21st century.” In 2010, a stage adaptation of “American Idiot” debuted on Broadway to critical and commercial acclaim. Released in 2020, GREEN DAY‘s thirteenth studio album “Father Of All Motherfuckers” debuted at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Album Sales chart and No. 1 in both the U.K. and Australia. Pitchfork declared, “GREEN DAY‘s most fetching and youthful songs in ages. The trio sounds reinvigorated, more like hungry newcomers staking their claim.” In July 2021, GREEN DAY embarked on the “Hella Mega Tour” with FALL OUT BOY and WEEZER. The global tour included 29 sold-out stadium gigs, including renowned venues like London Stadium and Los Angeles’s Dodger Stadium.
