The Mars Volta announce US tour dates

The Mars Volta have announced a run of headline show dates that will take place this May and include performances at the Shaky Knees Festival in Atlanta, Welcome To Rockville Festival in Daytona, and a show supporting Red Hot Chili Peppers in San Diego.

These shows come on the heels of a wildly prolific year for the band. In September of 2022, they released ‘The Mars Volta,’ their seventh studio album and first new music in a decade via Clouds Hill Recordings. It was critically acclaimed and reignited guitarist/composer Omar Rodríguez-López and singer/lyricist Cedric Bixler-Zavala – finding them at the most mature, most concise, and most focused place they had ever been.

They also embarked on a nationwide tour, which had them performing live as The Mars Volta for the first time in ten years. The shows sold out quickly with many cities adding extra nights due to overwhelming demand, which also sold out. Tickets for the upcoming headline shows with support from Teri Gender Bender will go on sale at 10AM local time on February 3rd via the band’s website – www.themarsvoltaofficial.com.
