Tripping Daisy, the beloved alternative rock band known for their energetic sound and vibrant performances, is reuniting for a North American tour, marking their first tour in 26 years. This exciting summer outing is set to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their iconic album, I Am an Elastic Firecracker, which played a pivotal role in the band's ascent during the late '90s music scene. Frontman Tim DeLaughter, along with his bandmates, promises to deliver an unforgettable experience by performing the album in its entirety, along with a selection of other fan-favorite tracks.

The tour is scheduled to kick off on June 21, 2025, in their hometown of Dallas, Texas, at the famed Bomb Factory, a venue known for hosting major acts and providing a lively atmosphere. After starting in Dallas, Tripping Daisy will embark on a journey through the Midwest, making stops in cities such as Denver, St. Louis, Chicago, and Columbus. The band will then cross the border for two shows in Canada before wrapping up their tour on the East Coast. The final concert is set for July 20, 2025, at The Underground in Charlotte, North Carolina, promising fans a spectacular conclusion to the tour.

Tickets for select dates will go on sale this Friday, April 18th, at 10:00 a.m. via Ticketmaster, providing fans with a chance to secure their spots for what is anticipated to be a memorable return for the band.

Tripping Daisy was formed in 1990 by Tim DeLaughter and his fellow musicians, quickly gaining popularity with their unique sound and vibrant stage presence. However, the band faced a tragic setback in 1999 with the untimely death of guitarist Wes Berggren, which led to their disbandment. Following this heartbreaking event, DeLaughter and other members reformed under the name The Polyphonic Spree, continuing their musical journey but leaving fans yearning for a Tripping Daisy reunion.

The band's last studio album, a self-titled release, came out in 2000, and since then, fans have eagerly awaited new material. Alongside their upcoming tour, Tripping Daisy has announced plans to release a new album, generating further excitement among their loyal following.
