THE MELVINS, who only recently announced a staggering number of U.S. tour dates for 2025, have slated a March trek across the Golden State, with the Los Angeles-based outfit playing six shows across California, dubbed the "Spring Break" Tour.
Tickets for the newly announced dates are on-sale now. CNTS and DESSLOK open on all dates.
Buzz Osborne shared: "California! Here we go! There's no better time to crisscross the state. Let's do it!"
The trek sees THE MELVINS touring as a four-piece with Dale Crover returning after a medical emergency sidelined him in 2023. Joining Crover behind the kit is BIG BUSINESS' Coady Willis joining Crover for a rare double-drum extravaganza.
THE MELVINS' previously announced "Savage Imperial Death March Part II" sees the addition of two dates: April 12 at Swan Dive in Las Vegas and May 11 at Globe Iron in Cleveland. Tickets for the full run of "Death March" dates are on-sale now. Openers include WEEDEATER (April 4-May 5), TITANS TO TACHYONS featuring MR.
