Southern California's cult beloved prog-psych-rock quartet RX Bandits have announced initial dates for what is to be the band's farewell headlining tour. The long-running group has seen many triumphs in its 16-year existence and goes out at the height of its career, following their 2010 series of sold out shows performing three previous albums in their entirety, playing Bonnaroo, Coachella and Bamboozle festivals and receiving considerable critical and fan praise for its 2009 release, Mandala. Please see complete tour dates below.
Last month, RX Bandits announced that their forthcoming tour would be their last. Their brief statement reads: "We would like to express our love and appreciation for all that you've done for us and how much a part of our growth you have been. We have all mutually decided that this summer will be our last tour. We love each other and love you all and hope to see you at the shows."
In an age where taking risks and being fearless can make or break you, RXB emerged as a tidal wave, a force that shatters all the boundaries set against them. Throughout their long career, the group reinvented and revolutionized their identity while retaining their socially conscious lyrics and eruptive instrumentation. This concept has been the catalyst for the band's ever-growing fan base, which revels in their uniqueness and continue to storm their celebrated, incendiary live shows.
Check out the MP3 for the single, "My Lonesome Only Friend" HERE. Stream all albums HERE. Watch the official video for the song "Hope Is A Butterfly, No Net Its Captor" from Mandala HERE.
Tickets for the final tour shows will be available soon.
