Grammy-winning rock band Alabama Shakes has announced their highly anticipated return to the stage with a 30-date North American tour starting in July 2025, marking their first live performances since 2017.

The blues and soul group, featuring vocalist/guitarist Brittany Howard, guitarist Heath Fogg, and bassist Zac Cockrell, will embark on a cross-country journey hitting major cities including Las Vegas, New Orleans, Austin, Boston, Seattle, and Toronto.

"Last year, Heath, Zac, and I started chatting about how much fun it would be to make music together and tour again as Alabama Shakes," Howard shared in the announcement. "This band and these songs have been such a source of joy for all of us."

The tour will showcase both fan favorites like "Don't Wanna Fight" and "Gimme All Your Love" as well as new material, with Howard hinting at upcoming releases. The band's last album, "Sound and Color," was released a decade ago.

Various acclaimed artists will support the tour, including Bahamas, Shannon & The Clams, El Michels Affair, The Budos Band, Sam Evian, and Lee Fields. The band will also appear at notable festivals including the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival and Bourbon and Beyond.

Ticket sales begin with an artist pre-sale on February 11, followed by general public access on February 14. The band has committed to donating one dollar from each ticket sale to organizations supporting equity, access, and dignity for all.

The announcement follows Howard's recent appearance at the 2025 Grammy Awards, where she performed Randy Newman's "I Love L.A." alongside other notable artists in the show's opening number.
