Forty years in and Pixies are still filling rooms that matter. The band has announced seven new US dates for September 2026, their first North American shows since a 2025 tour that drew raves from coast to coast. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 27 at 10am local time at pixiesmusic.com.
The run adds headline stops in Greenville SC, Wilmington NC, Louisville KY, Columbia MO, Santa Fe NM, and Tucson AZ, alongside festival appearances at the Borderland Music Festival in East Aurora NY and the Sea Hear Now Festival in Asbury Park NJ. The shows arrive as Charles “Black Francis” Thompson, Joey Santiago, David Lovering, and Emma Richardson round out a year that takes them through China, the Philippines, Hong Kong, the UK, and Europe first.
2026 marks the 40th anniversary of the band’s 1986 formation and the release of the Come On Pilgrim mini-LP. The milestone lands alongside another staggering one: “Where Is My Mind?” from 1988’s immortal ‘Surfer Rosa’ has surpassed one billion plays on Spotify. A catalog that includes platinum-certified ‘Doolittle’, ‘Bossanova’, ‘Trompe le Monde’, and seven more albums keeps growing in stature with each passing generation.
Their ninth album ‘The Night The Zombies Came’, released October 25 via BMG, drew immediate praise from AllMusic, who called it among their finest post-reunion music. The Hollywood Reporter recently declared them “the band that drew the blueprint for alternative rock.” That blueprint is still being followed by half the bands on the planet.
