Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats continue their milestone first arena tour next month, including a newly added date at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun, as well as performances in Los Angeles at the Kia Forum, Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, and multiple shows in Canada, including one at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena. The tour also features a landmark show at Madison Square Garden.
Tickets for the newly added Connecticut date at Mohegan Sun on March 23 will be available starting with an artist presale beginning Wednesday, January 8, at 10 A.M. (local time). Additional presales will continue throughout the week, ahead of the general on-sale beginning Friday, January 10, at 10 A.M. (local time). Limited tickets for the remaining dates are available now. Full details and a complete list of dates can be found here.
The first leg of the arena tour featured electrifying performances at Red Rocks, Chicago’s United Center, and St. Paul’s Xcel Energy Center. Pioneer Press praised Rateliff’s “twangy voice exploding out of guitars and keyboards and horns into roaring, soaring choruses”—see more critical acclaim for the tour below.
The tour caps off another milestone for the band, which achieved two #1 singles: “Heartless” and “Call Me (Whatever You Like)” from their critically acclaimed fourth full-length studio album, South of Here. Both tracks topped the Adult Alternative Chart, marking their seventh and eighth #1s to date. The album is out now via Stax—listen here. See the band perform “Heartless” on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert here, and watch an excerpt from their special on The Howard Stern Show here.
Additionally, Rateliff has been appointed as Newport Folk Steward, the first artist to hold such a role at the legendary festival since Pete Seeger. The position spans a three-year term, with Rateliff serving actively as Steward for two years and advising the next recipient during a third transition year. Rateliff has chosen to devote his term to artist advocacy, fellowship and mentorship both at the Fort and beyond.
