With a new album, Wild God, out now, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds will tour North America next year. Although Cave has toured with his red-right-hand-man Warren Ellis and made solo appearances, the full band has not visited the U.S. since 2018.
The dates, which includes appearances at arenas and theaters, kick off in Boston in April with St. Vincent serving as support for that show and the next date at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. The tour, without St. Vincent, will then wend around the country over the next month before wrapping in San Francisco.

Tickets will go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. local time on Friday, September 13th. Presales begin Tuesday at 10 a.m. local time. Full details are on a special website for the tour.
Last year, Cave told Rolling Stone how important performing live was to him. “I think the concerts I do are transcendent in nature, as is all music that involves an authentic exchange with the audience,” he said. “Sometimes, I think that music is the only place left, outside of religion, where we can have a legitimate transcendent experience.”
He added: “If you can go to a concert and be genuinely swept up by it, it makes you a better person, and it reaches up beyond… Music has the capacity to reach up beyond what we would normally expect from ourselves.”
The band is kicking off a run of European and U.K. dates later this month. Longtime Bad Seeds member Martyn Casey will not be with the group due to an illness on those dates. Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood, who supported Cave on a solo tour last year and guested on Wild God, is filling in.
Rolling Stone praised the “joyful madcap nature” of Wild God in a review. “Cave plays preacher, congregation, and god over the course of a suite of songs that are in equal measure elegiac and ecstatic,” the magazine said.
