Today, Atmosphere has announced new tour dates for 2026 with The Winter Carnival Tour featuring Sage Francis, R.A. The Rugged Man, with a Special Performance By Kool Keith and a Premier DJ Set by Mr. Dibbs. The 27 date tour will kick off in Nashville, TN on January 15, with stops along the way in Brooklyn, NY, Chicago, IL, a hometown stop in Minneapolis, MN, Austin, TX, Los Angeles, CA, Seattle, WA and other states.

“When we first decided to pull this tour together, we wanted to stack the line-up to feel reminiscent of the ‘Atmosphere & Friends’ stage that we curated at the legendary Soundset festival,” shares Slug, “I consider all of these featured artists to be friends of mine. Sage Francis and Mr. Dibbs have toured with me numerous times over the last 25 years, and they always bring the fun/pain.”

The artist adds: “This is my first time traveling with R.A. The Rugged Man and Kool Keith, but anyone familiar with them knows how much party they make. Regardless of where you position yourself on the spectrum of underground & independent hip-hop, The Winter Carnival Tour promises to be a good time for everybody. Coming to a Winter landscape near you.”
