Rival Sons announce Domestic Bliss US tour
Rival Sons have also confirmed that they're working on a new album
California rockers Rival Sons have announced their first run of US dates since 2024's Two-Headed Beast schedule. The Domestic Bliss tour kicks off at the Knitting Factory in Boise, ID, on October 30, and finishes on November 29 at the Clyde Theatre in Fort Wayne, IN.
"A lot of irons in the Rival Sons fire right now, but we wanted to break off a quick one domestically, get out there and run it hot for a minute," says frontman Jay Buchanan. "24 US dates in the fall, the Domestic Bliss Tour let's go!”
"We are elated to get back out touring across the U.S., it's been a while," adds guitarist Scott Holiday. "We weren't able to tour the US properly on the last two records, so it's going to be great to get back to some of those territories we missed. We're going to mix it up and try to play songs from across the catalogue - this is going to be fun for us!"
Support will come from Canadian blues rock duo The Blue Stones and Colorado rock'n'rollers The Velveteers, and tickets go on sale this Friday, June 26, at 10am local time. Full dates below.
Meanwhile, the band have also revealed that they're currently working on their ninth studio album, the follow-up to 2023's Darkfighter and Lightbringer sets.
"It's been great to get back to writing and recording with my brothers in Rival Sons," says drummer Michael Davis. "It's early days, and we're doing this one a bit differently, but I'm so excited about how it's turning out!"
The new album is expected to be released in 2027.
