Attention Chicago Dave Matthews Band fans: Eat, drink, and be merry...and, mark your calendars for both a new album and summer tour with a stop in Chicago.
According to a press release, Dave Matthews Band is launching a new album and a summer tour across North America beginning in May.
"Coinciding with the launch of their U.S. summer tour, Dave Matthews Band will release Walk Around The Moon – their 10th studio album and the follow-up to their chart-topping 2018 album, Come Tomorrow – on May 19," the release says.
The release goes on to say that the 12-song album "took shape during the pandemic and is as much a reflection on the current times as it is an urge to find common ground."
The band's U.S. portion of the tour kicks off May 19 -- the same day as the album release -- at The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands in Texas. The 45-date tour includes two nights in Chicago, and will conclude with the band's "traditional, three-day, Labor Day weekend celebration weekend" at the Gorge Amphitheater in George, Washington.
A presale for DMB's "Warehouse Fan Association" members is underway, the release says. Tickets are set to go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. on Feb. 17.
