This summer, iconic punk rock bands Dropkick Murphys and Bad Religion will be co-headlining
for the first time during their U.S. Summer Of Discontent Tour with openers The Mainliners
from July 22 through August 17.
Tickets for all shows go on sale February 20 at 10 am local time at this location and also here.
Dropkick Murphys vocalist and founder Ken Casey said, “We are so fired up to spend the
summer with these legends. We plan to give people a great night out when we hit their town.
Gonna be a blast!!”
Tim Brennan from Dropkick Murphys added: “Being able to tour with Bad Religion is such an exciting thing for us. It’s not every day we get to rub elbows with a band that
has that kind of legendary status and we are over the moon to hit the road with them.”
Bad Religion‘s singer Greg Graffin chimed in: “Bringing together our two bands and our respective
audiences should create an event of epic proportions. But most importantly, I look forward to the
community of camaraderie and togetherness we will share with such talented fellow musicians
and punk fans across the Nation. I can’t wait!”
Bad Religion’s bassist Jay Bentley added, “You know, this has been a long time coming. We’ve shared the stage at plenty of festivals with Kenny and the guys, and I am genuinely excited to hit the road with the Dropkicks, finally. Their energy is infectious, and I’m looking forward to spending the summer with them. I think it’s going to be a blast for us and our fans.”
