In celebration of Modest Mouse’s 20th Anniversary of the release of their groundbreaking 2004 album, Good News For People Who Love Bad News, the band has announced Good News For People Who Love Bad News 20 Year Anniversary Tour. The tour includes three consecutive performance dates in Los Angeles from November 6 through November 8 at the Bellwether.

The tour will begin October 28, 2024 in Honolulu, HI and includes multiple nights in Portland, Los Angeles and concluding on November 23 with three night’s at New York City’s Brooklyn Steel. The fall tour includes 22-dates total stopping at cities such as Seattle, San Diego, Denver, Toronto, and more.

Released by Epic Records on April 6, 2004, Good News For People Who Love Bad News offered a unique blend of existential lyricism and innovative soundscapes which helped Modest Mouse break out of the rock underground after more than a decade of existence. The album, which has been certified double platinum for U.S. shipments of 2 million copies, is hailed as an alternative classic on the strength of songs such as the Modern Rock chart-topping, 5-times platinum single “Float On,” the gold-certified “The World At Large” and “Ocean Breathes Salty.”

Good News For People Who Love Bad News was written by Isaac Brock, Dann Gallucci, Eric Judy and Benjamin Weikel, with additional contributions from Tom Peloso, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band and The Flaming Lips. Its success propelled Modest Mouse to new levels of visibility without compromising its hard-won artistic freedom, which was no small feat at a time when many once-independent acts were creatively waylaid after signing to major labels.

Earlier this year on the album’s anniversary, Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, released a digital expanded edition Good News For People Who Love Bad News: 20th Anniversary Expanded Edition featuring eight bonus tracks, including brand new remixes from Poolside, Jacknife Lee, Dan the Automator, MGMT’s Andrew VanWyngarden and more. The album was also released and remastered for vinyl in opaque baby pink and opaque spring green, the package includes an alternate album cover, 8-page booklet and five of the new remixes.

See Modest Mouse perform live at the Bellwether with special guest The Black Heart Procession from Wednesday, November 6 through Friday, November 8. Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com. One dollar from each ticket will go to the artist chosen charity, Reverb.
