The Struts’ headlining tour launches September 21st in Detroit, Michigan and concludes November 9th in San Francisco, California. The English glam-rock quartet, currently opening for Foo Fighters on a sold-out trek, booked 28 dates throughout the U.S. and one in Canada (Toronto, Ontario on September 26th).
Tickets for the Body Talks Tour go on sale Friday, July 20th. White Reaper, Spirit Animal, the Wrecks and Thunderpussy will open various dates. Additional details are available on the band’s website.
The Struts recently issued “Body Talks,” the lead single from their upcoming second LP. The as-yet-untitled album will follow the group’s debut record, 2014’s Everybody Wants, which they reissued in 2016.
Since officially forming in 2012, the band have opened for some of rock’s most massive bands, including the Rolling Stones, the Who, Guns N’ Roses, the Killers and Mötley Crüe.
Frontman Luke Spiller spoke to Rolling Stone in 2016 about the Struts’ glam and hard-rock influences. “There were kids like me when I was growing up, and we would talk for hours about AC/DC and Led Zeppelin,” he said. “There’s no smoke without fire. We’re not the only ones. I know that. But it doesn’t matter if kids end up dressing like us. We’ve just always kept the faith that we need to write the best songs we can. That’s the number-one priority.”
