The Breeders line up 2024 UK and European tour dates
They’ll be Kim Deal and co.’s first live shows on the continent in six years.
Having recently celebrated 30 years since the release of their seminal album ‘Last Splash’, ’90s icons The Breeders have now shared details of a forthcoming tour of the UK and Europe - their first gigs across the pond since 2018.
Kicking off at the end of June in Leeds, the run of dates will see the band hit 12 cities and festivals across the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium, Spain, and Portugal, with punk now-duo Big Joanie joining them for select shows.
The tour comes sandwiched between The Breeders’ huge US shows with Olivia Rodrigo, and the band have marked the announcement by releasing an animated short for their Guided By Voices cover ‘Shocker In Gloomtown’.

Kim Deal: The Real Deal
Over 35 years into her storied career, the alt-rock icon is releasing a solo album under her own name for the very first time. Full of circularities and yet staunchly forward-facing, it’s a portrait of an artist who’s never lost heart.
