Thundercat has announced a North American tour that will begin late in February of 2020, ending early in April. There are 27 shows currently slated for the springtime tour; no guests have been announced at this time, but based on the tour’s teaser trailer, that’s likely to change. Given that he hasn’t released an album since 2017’s terrific Drunk, this may be a sign that he plans on dropping something new in the near future. You can check out the announcement video (directed by Zack Fox) below for a look into Thundercat’s daily life leading up to the tour, and a peek at his cat, Turbo Tron Over 9000 Baby Jesus Sally, for whom he wrote “Tron Song”.
The tour begins with a show in Vancouver, heads down the west coast, then through the Midwest before returning to Canada for a couple dates. After hitting the east coast, he will make his way through the South to end the tour in Texas. The scheduled dates are listed below, and tickets go on sale this Friday, December 6th. You can follow Thundercat on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to keep abreast of further updates.
