Bikini Kill are going back on the road this summer for a North American tour. Joining them for select shows along the way are openers Comet Gain, Big Joanie, Tropical Fuck Storm, Snoozers, and R.Aggs. Find the complete list of tour dates below.
The tour kicks off in Los Angeles on August 15. From there, Bikini Kill will perform in San Francisco, Denver, Milwaukee, Chicago, Toronto, Brookyln, and Philadelphia, among other cities. The run comes to an end in Baltimore on September 11.
In addition to throwing a benefit concert for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund last month, Kathleen Hanna and her bandmates also signed an open letter of musicians calling for a cease-fire in Gaza. Other signees included Brian Eno, Zack de la Rocha, Arooj Aftab, Kid Cudi, and thousands more. Hanna’s upcoming memoir, Rebel Girl: My Life as a Feminist Punk, will hit shelves soon, too, on May 14.
