Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms Announce 2026 Tour Dates


Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms spent last summer traveling around America playing shows with their old friends, the Spin Doctors, on board as well. The good news is that it was such a successful combination of ’90s alternative rock power that they’re doing it again with a fresh stack of summer tour dates for 2026.

This year’s installment will launch July 06 in Grand Junction, Colorado, and there are shows booked all the way through Sept. 19 in Traverse City, Michigan. Tickets go on sale Friday (Jan. 23), and you can see all of the dates below.

Did These Bands Know Each Other in the ’90s?

As Blues Traveler frontman John Popper notes, their history with Spin Doctors goes way back to the early days when the two groups were cutting their teeth in the New York music scene, playing shows at a variety of bars and clubs, including the legendary Wetlands. If you were in the area at that time, you probably still have fond memories of some of the epic Spinning Traveler gigs you saw back then.

They were “pups in the same litter” with a “shared origin story,” he commented in a press release announcing the summer run. “But working with Gin Blossoms was a first. Their music was everywhere when we were coming up, and yet only last summer did we have the opportunity to learn how fun it is playing with them — and to discover how much energy our three bands put out in combination. So, we’ve decided to take this show everywhere we missed last year.”
