California-based rock 'n' roll band Rival Sons announce an extensive U.S. tour this fall, kicking off in Boise, Idaho and finishing up in Fort Wayne, Indiana at the end of November. Rival Sons frontman Jay Buchanan states “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. 24 US dates in the fall, The Domestic Bliss Tour let’s go!”
The Grammy-nominated band will head out across the U.S. this October, promising to play tracks from across their nine-album catalogue. Guitarist Scott Holiday states: "We are elated to get back out touring across the U.S., it's been a while. We weren't able to tour the U.S. 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!" Rival Sons will be joined by Canadian blues rock duo The Blue Stones and Colorado based rock trio The Velveteers on most shows.
The band have announced they've been back in the studio working on a new album, expected next year. Drummer Michael Miley states: "It's been great to get back to writing and recording with my brothers in Rival Sons - it's early days and we're doing this one a bit differently but I'm so excited about how it's turning out!"
Rival Sons released their last albums DARKFIGHTER and LIGHTBRINGER in 2023, subverting expectations with two full-length albums in one year. Though born from the same creative cycle, the records are distinct in spirit — capturing Rival Sons in a state of constant evolution. That evolution has continued beyond the band, with frontman Jay Buchanan releasing his debut solo album Weapons of Beauty earlier this year, a more intimate and cinematic body of work that debuted at #10 on the US Americana chart.
Your favorite band's favorite band, Rival Sons are masters of their craft — loud, fearless and forever evolving, with the musicianship to back it all up. Now, with new material already in progress and the next chapter taking shape, Rival Sons stand at a rare intersection: a band with a rich legacy behind them and a creative future still wide open. Restless, refined, and always pushing forward, they remain one of the most vital forces in modern rock.
The "Domestic Bliss" tour will offer limited VIP packages that include early entry, exclusive merch items and a signed poster.
