By Daniel Kreps

Daniel Kreps

Post-rock instrumental act Explosions in the Sky will embark on their first North American tour since 2019 this fall.

Dubbed The End Tour , the trek kicks off Sept. 15 in Houston and moves its way eastward over the span of three weeks, concluding Oct. 5 at New York’s Kings Theatre. The following month, the band will venture to Europe for a brief 11-date trek.

The mysterious band didn’t elaborate on the meaning of the tour’s name, whether it’s “the end” of the road for them or the start of the promotional trail for their first studio album (and non-soundtrack) since 2016’s Wilderness .

Explosions In The Sky Reveal “The End” Tour

photo credit Nick Simonite

• No Comments

For the first time since 2020, Explosions In The Sky are hitting the road. Their “The End” tour will have the band traversing the States from September 15 to October 3 before they make the trip overseas for a string of dates that will lead them into late November. Although there is no word on new music, the name of the tour has sparked rumors of the band calling it quits after these shows wrap up deep into Fall. 

The Austin natives have been staying under the radar since the release of their 2016 album, The Wilderness , their last studio effort. While the bad was the driving force behind the soundtrack to the 2021 film, “Big Bend”, the band has been laying low since their 20th Anniversary tour back in 2020. 

Since their debut record came out in 2000, Explosions In The Sky have been one of the most prolific and consistently impressive bands to emerge from their era. Their creativity hit a new high with the release of their critically-acclaimed 2003 album, The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place . Since then the band has scored multiple appearances in film and television including providing full soundtracks for films like “Lone Survivor” (2014) and “Manglehorn” (2015). 

While specific details on the tour are slim, you can check out the full list of dates below and keep an eye out for any updates on an explanation of the cryptic tour name.

Explosions in the Sky Announce 2023 “The End Tour” Dates

The post Explosions in the Sky Announce 2023 “The End Tour” Dates appeared first on Consequence .

Explosions in the Sky have very mysteriously announced a run of 2023 tour dates. The post-rock group will embark on “The End Tour” beginning this fall, and as for what the “end” actually entails here, your guess is as good as ours!

Much like Explosions in the Sky’s music, press materials for “The End Tour” are composed 0f very few words. We  do  know the dates, which begin on September 15th in Houston. The band will then make stops in cities including Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, and New Haven, before heading off to Europe; that leg will include shows in London, Dublin, Berlin, Barcelona, and more.

Still, no clues as to how “The End Tour” gets its name. For all we know it could be a farewell tour, a new album, or the anticipation of societal collapse. Either way, a ticket pre-sale begins tomorrow, April 19th, at 10:00 a.m. local using the fan code THEENDTOUR  or the LiveNation code VINYL . General sale follows this Friday, April 21st at 10:00 a.m. local, and you can grab yours at Ticketmaster .

Once tickets are on sale, you can also find them at StubHub , where orders are 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s FanProtect program. StubHub is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand. See Explosions in the Sky’s “The End Tour” itinerary below.

In 2021, Explosions in the Sky provided the score to the PBS documentary Big Bend: The Wild Frontier of Texas . They also landed on our recent list of the top 10 post-rock albums .

Explosions in the Sky Extend “The End Tour” with 2024 Dates

In support of the band's latest album

Explosions in the Sky have extended their “The End Tour” to include a number of new dates in North America and Asia.

The band’s latest album, End , arrived this past September, marking their first full-length release in seven years. In support of the record, they embarked on a tour of North America and Europe this past fall. Now, they’re heading back out on the road for the new leg, which’ll begin with a pair of shows in Austin, Texas later this month.

Then, the band will take a few weeks off before heading to San Antonio, Texas for a show on January 19th. From there, they’ll bop around the Southwest and West Coast, playing cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, Denver, and more. After that, they’ll head to Asia for a handful of dates. Tickets will first go on sale via an artist pre-sale (sign-up here ), and will become available to the general public via Ticketmaster on Friday, December 8th, at 10:00 a.m. local time.

Once tickets are on sale, you can also find them at StubHub , where orders are 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s FanProtect program. As for the band’s overseas dates, you can secure your seats via Viagogo .

For each of the new dates, Explosions in the Sky will be joined by local opening acts. According to the press release, the band’s plan to “curate local opening acts rather than selecting one established support band for the entire tour” is meant to “embody the album’s thematic embrace of the cycle of life.”

In November, Explosions in the Sky unveiled vinyl reissues in celebration of the 20th anniversaries of both 2001’s Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever and 2003’s The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place . Those albums, as well as End , are still available to purchase, with orders ongoing.
