Big Thief have expanded their 2023 North American tour by adding July and August concerts to their summer schedule. The newly revealed dates will also see the band welcome Nick Hakim and Lucinda Williams at select stops. See below.
After returning from an excursion through Europe, Big Thief will kick off the final leg of newly announced dates with a one-night stand at Lawn at Shelburne Museum in Burlington, Vt., on July 17, before following up by performing shows in Northampton, Mass., and Kingston, N.Y.
Big Thief treks through the midwest next, stopping in Indianapolis on July 26 and Madison, Wis., the following night–both dates will see Hakim join the ensemble. A high point of the tour will occur next when the group takes the fabled Red Rocks Amphitheatre stage on July 31, this time with Williams.
The final dates of their tour will occur in the Pacific Northwest. It will consist of a single night at Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver, B.C., before the band jumps down the coast and plays a show in Portland, Ore., on Aug. 4, followed by a gig at Marymoor Amphitheater outside Seattle.
News of the band’s 2023 tour dates come after the release of their GRAMMY-nominated LP, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You, which dropped on Feb. 11, 2022, via 4AD.
Tickets for the newly-announced shows are on sale Friday, Jan. 27, at 10 a.m. local time. For more information, visit bigthief.net.
