The 23-city run gets underway on September 9th in Cincinnati
Fresh off the headlining North American band tour for his new album Here We Go Crazy, Bob Mould announces an additional run of Solo Electric shows across the US, starting with Cincinnati, Ohio on September 9th and ending with St. Paul, Minnesota on October 11th. He had previously announced a short run of solo shows for this summer, including an appearance at the Punk Rock Bowling & Music Festival 2025 in Las Vegas on May 25ht, and stops along the East Coast in July and August. Special guests J. Robbins (solo), The Baseball Project, Loose Cattle, and David Barbe will be opening select shows on the tour.
“We the band spent the past six weeks performing sets focused on the music we recorded together since 2012. Now, with the announcement of new Solo Electric shows, I’m looking forward to adding deeper cuts from my career songbook. The volume will be a touch quieter than the band shows, but the intensity will remain the same. Looking forward!” Mould says.
In November, Mould will hit European cities with shows in Greece, Finland, London, Berlin, Leuven, and others. Support for all solo electric shows comes from Che Arthur.
Here We Go Crazy, the 15th solo album and first full-length studio album in more than four years from the legendary musician, was released in early March of this year to critical acclaim. He stopped at record stores in London, Bristol, and Berlin for sold out in-store performances and signings.
This Saturday, Mould will be delivering the keynote address for the 2025 commencement ceremony at his alma mater, Macalester College, and will also be receiving an honorary degree. Mould formed Hüsker Dü during his first year at Macalester in 1979, but with the band’s rapid success, he left the college during his final year to go on tour and never graduated. At the time, he was in the process of writing an honors thesis on punk rock as a subculture.
“In 1978, Macalester College accepted and welcomed this 17-year old kid from Malone, NY to St. Paul, Minnesota. Without that opportunity, my life would be completely different. I never imagined I would be asked back to receive an honorary degree, nor did I foresee delivering the commencement speech to the Macalester College graduating class of 2025. I’ll do my best this Saturday,” Mould states.
