Tomahawk will officially returned to the stage later this year after announcing a month-long U.S. tour celebrating their 25th anniversary. The run also reunites them with longtime labelmates Melvins, marking the first time the bands have toured together since the 2003 Geek Show trek.
Featuring guitarist Duane Denison, vocalist Mike Patton, drummer John Stanier, and bassist Trevor Dunn, Tomahawk last toured behind 2013's Oddfellows. While the band returned with 2021's Tonic Immobility, pandemic restrictions prevented them from performing the album live.
So what can we expect from Tomahawk in the next year or so? Maybe some more dates, but that's it: "We tried to keep tickets as affordable as possible for these shows. We know horrible fees get added as well. Sharing the stage with the Melvins makes this an even better deal. There will not be any other band on the bill.
"To answer some of the questions we are getting, we will not be adding more cities to this run… There is no new music planned. No meet and greets or any of that special package stuff. Oh and we are not taking song requests, that's not how concerts work.
"We are all busy with other things and not as young as we used to be so we crammed as many dates into the period that we were all available. Our booking agent solicits offers and routes the dates based on the offers received. Believe it or not we don't get offers from EVERY city.
"As of this very moment, we do not have any other touring plans in 2026. However, we are in constant contact with our agents and working on our individual schedules to see if there is interest and we might have time to visit more of you, in other countries, in 2027. Stay tuned. Thank you for welcoming us back!"
