Everclear, one of the leading alternative rock bands to emerge from the ’90s led by vocalist, guitarist and founder Art Alexakis, has announced the “Sparkle And Fade 30th Anniversary Tour” featuring special guests Local H and Sponge.
Sparkle And Fade, Everclear‘s platinum-selling major-label debut album, had a massive impact in 1995 with its chart-topping hit “Santa Monica”, making Everclear a household name and catapulting the band into the masses.
Everclear‘s 40-date fall headlining tour will kick off September 4 in Los Angeles and travel across the U.S., stopping in such cities as San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Oklahoma City, Austin, Louisville, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Charlotte, Boston, New York (October 22 at Irving Plaza), Philadelphia, Washington, DC, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Minneapolis, among many others, before wrapping November 2 in Chicago.
Various pre-sales will be available Wednesday, March 12 and Thursday, March 13 at 10 a.m. local time daily with the public on sale commencing Friday, March 14 at 10 a.m. local time. VIP and meet-and-greet packages are also available. Visit www.everclearmusic.com/tour for all details and to purchase.
“‘Sparkle And Fade’ was not the first album I had made, but it was the album I had wanted to make my whole life. It changed everything for me and Everclear,” shares Alexakis. “Because of its success and lasting impact, this band has survived and prospered for three decades, and this tour celebrating ‘Sparkle And Fade’ is another way of us saying ‘thank you’ to all of the incredible fans — old and new. We’re excited to travel the U.S. this fall with our fellow ’90s brethren Local H and Sponge. In addition to all the hits and fan favorites, we’re going to pretty much play the whole album through the course of the show to commemorate this 30th anniversary. If you are a fan of this record, you do not want to miss this tour!”
In 2023, Everclear released their first official live album, Live At The Whisky A Go Go, showcasing the band’s acclaimed and energetic live performance. The 17-track collection, available via Sunset Blvd Records, features the live recording of the Los Angeles show on Everclear‘s 30th-anniversary tour, showcasing the hits and hidden treasures from throughout the band’s extraordinary catalog as well as two new bonus studio tracks: “Sing Away”, a powerful single addressing teen suicide, and their 2022 politically-charged single “Year Of The Tiger”.
Continuing to celebrate their acclaimed decades-long career and provide the band’s dedicated fanbase with long-awaited content, Everclear released their platinum-selling album Songs From An American Movie Vol. One on vinyl for the first time ever in 2024 via Intervention Records.
Everclear is: Art Alexakis (vocals, guitar), Davey French (guitar), Freddy Herrera (bass) & Brian Nolan (drums).
