Announce 40th Anniversary Shows
April 1st, 2026 by Traci Turner
In news that will make you clutch your chest, our beloved Pixies are turning 40! The legendary alt rockers formed in Boston in 1986, and it is time to tour the globe in celebration.
So far, the US only has a few dates, but their site states more will be added. The little trek kicks off in September and hits Greenville (SC), Wilmington (NC), East Aurora (NY – Borderland Music Festival), Asbury Park (NJ – Sea Hear Now Festival), Louisville (KY), Columbia (MO), Santa Fe (NM), and Tucson (AZ). Pixies will spend the summer in Asia and Europe, hitting all the major cities and countries.
The band released “The Night the Zombies Came” last year, their first record with bassist Emma Richardson. Richardson replaced Paz Lenchantin in 2024.
Pixies remain Black Francis on vocals and guitar, Joey Santiago on guitar, Magic Man David Lovering on drums, and the previously mentioned Richardson on bass.
Hopefully the additional dates will land them closer to SoCal so we can get our “Where Is My Mind,” “Wave of Mutilation,” “Monkey Gone to Heaven,” “Gigantic,” “Dog for Fire,” “Velouria,” “Here Comes Your Man,” and “Is She Weird” up close and in person!
