In a highly anticipated return to American shores, Massive Attack will be performing in the US this October, marking their first stateside shows since the Mezzanine XXI tour in 2019. The legendary Bristol-based electronic group will headline Miami’s III Points festival, with a series of East Coast dates surrounding the event.
Massive Attack’s US itinerary includes four headline shows, each featuring DJ Milo, a fellow member of their historic Bristol Wild Bunch collective, as the opening act. The dates are as follows: October 17 in Atlanta at Coca-Cola Roxy Theatre, October 22 in Washington, DC, at The Anthem, October 23 in Boston at Roadrunner, and October 24 in NYC at Forest Hills Stadium.
Presales began Thursday at 10 a.m. Eastern time, with general ticket sales commencing on Friday, July 19, at 10 a.m. EST.
Massive Attack’s European tour launched with an unforgettable concert at Gothenburg Film Studios in Sweden, featuring special guests Young Fathers and Horace Andy. The show reached its pinnacle when frequent collaborator Elizabeth Fraser delivered a surprise performance of Tim Buckley’s “Song to the Siren,” a song she initially popularized with This Mortal Coil in 1983.
The band’s ongoing EU/UK tour will culminate in a Climate Change benefit concert in their hometown of Bristol at Clifton Downs on August 25. This event will boast an eclectic lineup, including Killer Mike, Lankum, Sam Morton, and DJ Milo, further underscoring Massive Attack’s dedication to activism and environmental causes.
Save for DJ Milo; as of yet, there is no official confirmation on who else will join Massive Attack for their US shows.
