The Hold Steady and Drive-By Truckers will co-headline a summer tour in July 2026, featuring special performances and new songs.
The Hold Steady's classic third album, Boys and Girls in America, turns 20 this year, and they recently announced dates and cities for the celebrations. They've now revealed full details for the spring dates of Constructive Summer 2026. The Chicago shows are on June 11-13, with a seated "Storytellers Set" at Thalia Hall on June 11, a rock show at Empty Bottle on June 12, and an all-day outdoor show at Salt Shed Fairgrounds on June 13 with Built to Spill, Bully, and Titus Andronicus.
The Hold Steady wrapped up the tenth edition of their Massive Nights NYC show series, which happened Wednesday through Sunday (12/3-12/6) at Brooklyn Bowl. 2025 started with their first-ever seated "Storytellers" show at the venue, where they played Thrashing Thru the Passion track "Epaulets" for the first time since 2019 and debuted a new song, "Meet Me in the City."
