Psychedelic soul outfit Black Pumas have announced a slew of North American tour dates that will first take place this July in Chicago, Illinois, at Lollapalooze, before wrapping up in Baltimore, Maryland, this January. Other stops on the tour include Atlanta, Seattle, Austin, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Brooklyn and Los Angeles.
Black Pumas are also scheduled to play at Iceland Airwaves this November, which is set to host the likes of Bartees Strange, Metronomy, Arlo Parks, Aron Can, Axel Flóvent, Countess Malaise and KeiyaA. Their North American tour includes stops at Ohana Fest in Dana Point, Austin City Limits and Music Midtown in Atlanta, Georgia.
Composed of Grammy Award-winning guitarist and producer Adrian Quesada and singer-songwriter Eric Burton, who are based out of Austin, Texas. The group launched into further prominence after being nominated for a Best New Artist Grammy on the behalf of their 2019 self-titled debut studio album. The group were nominated for three further Grammys this year. ALthough the two artists had a large age gap, their chemistry and performances helped them gain the attention of ATO Records, who released their debut album.
“I still can’t believe we’re part of the conversation, because we haven’t been a band very long,” says Burton. “I’ve had to be more professional, or else I’m going to get fired.”
