Hootie & the Blowfish have announced their return to the road in 2024, as the foursome sets out on the “Summer Camp with Trucks” tour, produced by Live Nation featuring special guests Collective Soul and Edwin McCain.
The iconic pop-rock band will visit 43 cities across the U.S. and Canada. This marks the first full tour since 2019 for the band whose chart-topping, GRAMMY-award winning career includes their 2x Diamond-certified debut album Cracked Rear View – which remains among the top 10 best-selling albums in all of music history – plus 17 Billboard-charting songs.
Citi is the official card of the tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to pre-sale tickets beginning Nov. 7, at 12 p.m. local time until Nov. 9 at 10 p.m. local time. General on-sale begins Nov. 10 at 10 a.m. local time here.
Hootie & the Blowfish, comprised of Mark Bryan, Dean Felber, Darius Rucker and Jim “Soni” Sonefeld, formed the band during their time as students together at the University of South Carolina.
“Basically overnight, our lives changed when Cracked Rear View did what it did – and yet as we quickly moved from vans and college bars to tour busses and arenas, not much else changed with how we approached making music and sharing it with our fans,” says Bryan. “Edwin McCain told someone at the time that touring with us felt like summer camp with trucks… and that’s exactly how we want next year to feel, too. We can’t wait for you to join us!”
The tour kicks off May 30 and runs through Sept. 28, visiting arenas, amphitheaters and select stadiums such as Boston’s iconic Fenway Park (with special guests Barenaked Ladies) along the way, including a homecoming to Columbia, S.C.’s Colonial Life Arena for the Gamecock alumni.
Hailing from Atlanta, Collective Soul is celebrating their 30th anniversary, led by frontman and chief songwriter Ed Roland. Their classic hits include “Shine,” “December,” “The World I Know,” “Heavy” and “Where the River Flows.”
