Black Country, New Road Announce First US Tour Dates Opening For Black Midi

Black Country, New Road were one of the breakout bands of the pandemic. They released their debut album, For The First Time, in 2021, and followed that up earlier this year with Ants From Up There, which just landed on our 50 Best Albums Of 2020 So Far list. They were supposed to head out on the road in the US for the first time in support of that album in February, but those dates were cancelled after frontman Isaac Wood left the band.

But today Black Country, New Road have announced a new string of US dates opening for Black Midi in the fall. They’ll also have their own headlining show in New York City. “As is the case with all our upcoming shows we will be performing a set of completely new music,” the band wrote in a statement. “We will not be playing any music from For The First Time or Ants From Up There.” That tracks with what they’ve been doing recently at shows on their side of the pond.

“We are incredibly excited to finally make our way out to the states and look forward to seeing as many of you as possible whilst we are out there,” the band said.
