Imperial Teen announces tour with The Breeders in six years

The indie rock world is buzzing with news about a long-awaited return: Imperial Teen and their eclectic crew are hitting the road for their first tour in six years. Featuring talents like Faith No More’s Roddy Bottum, members of Sister Double Happiness, and The Wrecks, this group is ready to bring their unique sound to the stage this fall.

The journey promises a trip across the country, kicking off with major stops on the West Coast. Fans will get to experience Imperial Teen live in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, and Boston, before making a memorable run through Brooklyn, Philadelphia, and Durham, North Carolina.

The lineup also brings some exciting cross-pollination. The West Coast dates are set to be stacked with appearances by Kids on a Crime Spree, adding another layer of energy to the show. Furthermore, in San Francisco, Imperial Teen will be opening for the legendary The Breeders at two separate dates in August.

Marking this return is the anticipation surrounding their latest work. Imperial Teen’s most recent album, Now We Are Timeless, served as the foundation for this exciting new chapter. The band captured the feeling of a fresh beginning with their announcement: “New era, new music, new us.”

This statement suggests that the tour isn’t just a retrospective but a forward-looking event—a chance to explore new musical directions and connect with an audience eager for fresh sounds. Whether it’s new material or simply a refreshed perspective, the energy radiating from the group is palpable.

Fans can now look forward to the specific dates that will mark this whirlwind tour. The schedule includes performances across major cities, making sure that indie rock fans won’t miss out on the chance to witness Imperial Teen live during this exciting run.

The upcoming itinerary details stops in key music hubs, including the highly anticipated Brooklyn show at Baby’s All Right on November 4th, as well as performances in Philadelphia and Durham.

The specific dates for the tour include shows spanning August and October, offering a diverse range of experiences. For instance, concerts are slated for San Francisco starting August 22nd and 23rd, followed by stops in Los Angeles, Seattle, and Portland before hitting Boston, Brooklyn, and Philadelphia.

These dates ensure that the excitement surrounding this six-year reunion is fully realized, providing audiences everywhere with a chance to experience the raw, evolving sound of Imperial Teen on stage.
