Spoon and Grizzly Bear Are Touring the U.S. Together
Photos by Zackery Michael, Tom HinesTwo indie-rock institutions will share a bill this summer, as Spoon and Grizzly Bear have announced a series of U.S. co-headlining shows.
The bands will take the same stage at seven Stateside stops this June, beginning at Boston’s Blue Hills Bank Pavilion on June 18. From there, they’ll play a handful of dates in the Northeast and Midwest before concluding their run at Surly Brewery in Minneapolis on June 30.
For each ticket sold on the tour, $1 will go to PLUS1 in support of Everytown for Gun Safety Support Fund, an organization dedicated to preventing gun violence and building safer communities. The bands are good, and the cause is even better.
