Summer Tour – Western Wildfires – Ridin’ the Lightning with Metallica – Last minute show in Albuquerque
Summer Tour begins tonight in Carrboro, NC and it winds its way across this fine country not once, but twice! We’re playing a festival curated by Metallica (what?!), we play a co-headliner with Reverend Horton Heat in KC, we’ll be celebrating the birth of the nation along the way with our good buddies Drag the River in Colorado… There is a large wildfire raging across Northern Colorado right now, as of now the July 4th show is still on! But tune into this page or Lucero’s facebook for any changes. Cross your fingers that the fire is put out soon. Our thoughts are with all those suffering as a result…
After Colorado we arrive in Southern California where we play the legendary Hootenanny Festival (alongside Rancid, The Rev Heat, Bouncing Souls, The Supersuckers, Old Man Markley, etc) But that’s not all. We decided to stay in the area for a couple more shows. If you didn’t notice we added a show in Pioneertown, CA & Santa Barbara after Hootenanny… Then Las Vegas (bang!) and then just yesterday we decided to stop by Albuquerque for a show. Due to the last minute nature of this show it’s going to be at a really small room. Only 125 lucky Lucer fans are gonna see this one, so get your tickets as soon as they’re available (we’ll post something soon) – or else you probably won’t get in. How could we skip Albuquerque? We couldn’t! Who loves ya?
“Women & Work” Summer Tour – expanding… Couple more dates announced….
Hey folks, we are taking a short break before the Summer Women & Work Tour. But that break is shortlived. We’ll be back on the road in something like 12 short days. And we have a surprise in store for you – we are working on something we’ll be able to share with you soon! We’re not just sittin’ around! Ben’s up in Minneapolis playing a couple solo shows, John’s fixin’ bikes for the people at Victory Bicycle Studio, Todd’s playing with Glossary at Bonnaroo… You get the picture: never a dull moment!
We are bringing the Women & Work tour to towns across this fine country we missed the first time around. Summer tour includes headliners, festivals (one with Metallica! Orion Music Festival) a co-bill with Reverend Horton Heat in Kansas City… Good times are on tap, Join us! A couple new shows have just been announced, get tickets through our ticketing system and save some money over other ticketing systems…

Hey folks, a lot of these shows have sold out on this tour. We are grateful for the support, the only downside is turning away people who want to come to the show! Don’t let that be you… Chicago is about to sell out, get tickets for that show now – HERE IS A LINK TO CHICAGO TICKETS.
Thanks again to everyone who has come out for the shows. It’s been a great tour!
