Following the recent news of their upcoming LP Lovely Stuff (Mar 2025, Anxious and Angry), Chicago’s Smoking Popes have announced yet another leg of touring in addition to their February and March dates. Whereas those dates will see the band swing down and east with Florida’s Camp Trash and Michigan’s Rodeo Boys, the new leg will see them head over and east.
The Popes will be continuing to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their sophomore LP Born to Quit, and joining them for the April and May dates will be Off With Their Heads, who will be performing In Desolation in full.
See both tour posters below. Tickets for the Apr/May shows go on sale this Friday, 17 Jan 2025.
