Jane’s Addiction and Love and Rockets are joining forces for a co-headlining 2024 North American tour. The two legendary alt-rock groups will embark on a 23-city trek starting in early August.
Love and Rockets, named after the Hernandez brothers’ iconic underground comic, dropped seven records over thirteen years. They burst onto the scene with their distinct take on the Temptations’ Ball of Confusion. This debut set the stage for their influential career, which spanned fourteen years and seven albums. After a 15-year hiatus, Love and Rockets re-formed in 2023 for a series of shows. Despite singer-guitarist Daniel Ash declaring those UK dates as their last, the band is ready to hit the road again.
Jane’s Addiction, formed in 1985, has been a trailblazer in alternative music and culture, blending genre-defying hits with a cinematic live experience. The lineup features the dynamic Perry Farrell on vocals, guitar virtuoso Dave Navarro, powerhouse drummer Stephen Perkins, and the rhythmic pulse of bassist Eric Avery. Their initial farewell tour in 1991 famously launched Lollapalooza, now the ultimate alternative rock festival.
This tour marks the first stateside run in 14 years with Jane’s Addiction’s classic lineup. Navarro recently rejoined the band in London after a lengthy battle with long COVID, while Avery returned to the fold in 2022 after over a decade apart.
The tour begins August 9th in Las Vegas and concludes with a September 29th gig at the Evolution Festival in St. Louis. Along the way, the bands will hit cities like Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York, Boston, and Chicago, among others.
