News: Dave Matthews Band Announces Tour Dates
2 min read(UK) Dave Matthews Band will return to Europe for a run of highly-anticipated shows this Autumn, marking the group’s first European dates since 2010. The European leg kicks off in Lisbon on October 11th and will make its way through Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Holland, Belgium, France before reaching the United Kingdom for a four date run culminating in Dublin at the 3Arena.
The band will follow in the footsteps of legendary artists such as BB King, Van Morrison, Elvis Costello, Robert Plant, Ronnie Wood and Gregory Porter to headline London’s biggest Blues inspired music festival ‘BluesFest’ at The O2 in London on the 7th November.
Dave Matthews Band will be performing two full sets each evening. The move to a two-set format last summer drew praise from fans and reviewers alike. Rolling Stone named Dave Matthews Band’s 2014 run as one of the hottest summer tours, observing how the change “resulted in plenty of surprises,” and The Atlanta Journal noted, “the stage is where DMB built its empire and where the band remains master of its domain…DMB deserves kudos for always bringing their A-game to the stage.”
With a career spanning more than 20 years, Dave Matthews Band is one of the most influential bands in rock history. Formed in Charlottesville, Va in 1991, Dave Matthews Band’s infectious and distinctive sound garnered lots of early attention and a die-hard loyal fan base, catapulting the band into one of the most successful touring acts of the past two decades. Dave Matthews Band has sold a collective 38 million CDs and DVDs combined. The group is currently in the studio with producer Rob Cavallo, working on the follow up to Away From The World, which entered the Billboard 200 at No. 1 in 2012.
