On Tuesday (April 15), Wilco announced that they have expanded their 2025 tour, adding a new run of North American shows the band has appropriately dubbed, “An August Evening with Wilco.” The just announced dates will follow the band’s “Sweet and Sour Spring 2025” tour with Waxahatchee. “An August Evening With Wilco” tour kicks off on August 5th in Philadelphia, with additional stops in cities such as Pittsburgh, Chicago, Kansas City, and Denver, before finishing up with a trio of Canadian shows at the end of the month. The band will offer pre-sale tickets starting on April 16th before the general on-sale begins on April 18th. Prior to the August shows, Wilco is also set to join Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan for three dates on the Outlaw Music Festival 2025 tour this summer. Frontman Jeff Tweedy also has a series of upcoming solo performances lined up, including hometown shows in Chicago and an appearance at the Newport Folk Festival. (Consequence of Sound)
