Le Tigre Roar Back for First Tour in 18 Years
Le Tigre will return to the road for their first tour in 18 years.
The electro-punk trio will play a lone show in Philadelphia on May 27 before heading over to Europe and the U.K. The North American leg of the tour will officially begin July 1 with a set at the Mosswood Meltdown Festival (hosted by filmmaker John Waters) in Oakland, California. Le Tigre will criss-cross North America the rest of the month, wrapping up July 28 at Brooklyn Steel in Brooklyn.
Tickets for all new shows will go on sale this Friday, Jan. 27, at 12 p.m. ET. Full info is available on Le Tigre’s website.
Support for the tour includes Shamir, Morgan and the Organ Donors, Claud, Big Joanie, Man on Man, Chicks on Speed, Pom Pom Squad, Dream Wife, Problem Patterns, Who is She?, Erin Markey, Cumgirl8, Morgan Bassichis.
Le Tigre emerged in the late Nineties, with Kathleen Hanna linking up with Johanna Fateman and JD Samson following the breakup of Bikini Kill and the release of her solo album, Julie Ruin. The group released three albums between 1999 and 2004 before splitting in 2005.
For the next 17 years, the members of Le Tigre largely focused on other projects, only reuniting in 2016 for a song, “I’m With Her,” in support of Hillary Clinton’s presidential run. In August 2022, they finally reunited on stage at the This Ain’t No Picnic festival.
