Hot Water Music have been going strong since 1994, and they’ll celebrate their 30th anniversary with a spring/summer tour in 2024. They’ll be joined by heroes and friends, including Quicksand, Off With Their Heads, and Tim Barry (of AVAIL), varying by date, plus a NYC show that features Quicksand, Modern Life Is War, and The Ergs!
That awesome NYC lineup goes down on May 11 at Brooklyn Paramount. Tickets for the whole tour are on presale now and the general public on-sale begins Friday (12/8). All dates are listed below.
HWM says:
This tour is insane! There is no world where anyone would come to us and say ‘You’ll be a band for 30 years,’ let alone ‘To celebrate your 30th anniversary, you’ll release your 10th album and tour with Quicksand, Tim Barry and Off With Their Heads’. We are super stoked to get back to so many spots we haven’t been in years and dust off some oldies that haven’t been in rotation for a while. Rest assured, these sets will have something for everyone. Thank you to everyone who has stuck by us and made this possible.
We wouldn’t be here without you. XOXO — HWM
HWM also have a UK run of 30th anniversary dates with A Wilhelm Scream and Catbite, and those dates are listed below too.
In related news, Chuck Ragan just released his first solo single in seven years, “Echo the Halls,” last month. Speaking of Quicksand, we just included them on our list of 21 albums that defined ’90s New York post-hardcore.
