Violent Soho Announces US Tour, Tickets Selling Fast...
Australian rock band Violent Soho has announced a surprise US tour, sparking a rush for tickets as fans scramble to secure spots. The tour, their first in North America since 2017, includes stops in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and Austin, with dates running from late June through July 2026.
The band confirmed the tour on social media early Friday, prompting immediate demand. Tickets went on sale at 10 AM local time today, with many venues reporting near-sellouts within hours. The surge in searches for "Violent Soho tickets" has pushed the topic to trending status on Google in the US.
Fans cite the band’s cult following and limited US appearances as key reasons for the frenzy. Violent Soho’s 2016 album WACO gained a dedicated American fanbase, but the group has rarely toured outside Australia in recent years. Their return follows a hiatus after their 2020 album Everything Is A-OK.
Major ticketing platforms like Ticketmaster and AXS have seen heavy traffic, with some users reporting technical delays due to high demand. Resale prices have already spiked on secondary markets, with some listings doubling face value.
The tour includes intimate venues, amplifying competition for tickets. Stops include the Troubadour in LA, Brooklyn’s Music Hall of Williamsburg, and Chicago’s Thalia Hall. A full schedule is available on the band’s website.
Violent Soho has not yet commented on whether new music will accompany the tour. The band’s last US shows in 2017 were praised for their high-energy performances, fueling anticipation for this summer’s run.
