Wednesday, the popular indie-rock band from Asheville, North Carolina, has thrilled fans with the announcement of their Fall 2025 North American tour. Set to launch in October, the tour promises an 18-date headlining journey across the continent, marking a significant event for the indie music community. The tour is scheduled to begin on October 9th in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and spans cities including Phoenix, Los Angeles, Denver, and New York, concluding on November 21st in Washington, DC. While fans eagerly anticipate the new performances, they can purchase tickets starting June 6th through Ticketmaster, with several pre-sales opening on June 4th. The band's official website will provide additional information, ensuring fans can secure their spots to witness what's poised to be an unforgettable tour experience.

One key aspect of this tour is the collaboration with other artists, enhancing the overall concert experience. Wednesday will have support from Friendship, who will join them on their West Coast dates, and Daffo, the opening act on the East Coast. This lineup not only ensures a diverse musical offering but also highlights the camaraderie within the indie music scene. However, notable absentee, MJ Lenderman, a core member of Wednesday, will not participate in this tour due to his recent announcement of stepping back from touring with the band. Despite this, Lenderman's presence will still echo as he recently performed the band's new single, “Elderberry Wine,” during a captivating appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, suggesting his influence and connection to Wednesday remains strong.

The tour announcement follows Wednesday's highly regarded 2024 performances, which supported their most recent album, Rat Saw God. This album received widespread acclaim, cementing its place as the second-best album of 2023 according to some publications. Fans have long cherished the band's unique sound, and this tour represents a continuation of their artistic journey, offering audiences a chance to experience both the cherished tracks and the newly introduced single, “Elderberry Wine,” live on stage. This particular track marks their latest release since 2023 and has been recognized for its twangy, captivating sound, providing a hint of what might be expected in their future musical endeavors.

The excitement surrounding Wednesday's tour is palpable within the indie rock community, as the band has consistently showcased an ability to blend expressive lyricism with innovative instrumental arrangements, capturing the hearts of both long-time followers and new listeners alike. As they embark on this tour, Wednesday aims not only to celebrate their past successes but also to pave the way for future artistic exploration and collaboration.

Each stop on the tour is designed to reflect the band's dynamic stage presence and musical evolution. The detailed itinerary presents opportunities for a wide range of audiences across North America to engage with the band's evolving sound. The different supporting acts on the East and West coasts introduce refreshing dynamics, allowing Wednesday to connect with diverse audiences through varied musical expressions and shared experiences.

In anticipation of the tour, fans have been revisiting Wednesday’s previous albums and live performances, heightening the sense of eagerness. With venues like the Gothic Theatre in Englewood, CO, Brooklyn Steel in New York, and the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC on the itinerary, fans can expect memorable evenings filled with electrifying performances and emotional depth. As the dates draw nearer, the band remains a topic of vibrant discussion among music enthusiasts, who eagerly speculate about set lists and potential surprises during the tour's various stops.

Overall, Wednesday's Fall 2025 tour embodies the spirit of indie rock, marked by authentic artistic expression and communal connection. With a blend of veteran and emerging artists sharing the stage, this tour is not merely a series of concerts but a celebration of the resilience and creativity inherent in indie music. As ticket sales open and fans prepare to gather across North America, the anticipation builds for a series of performances that promise to resonate deeply with audiences and reaffirm Wednesday's status as a cornerstone of modern indie rock.
