The upcoming two-night stand at Madison Square Garden will be among the highlights of Goose’s annual summer headline run, to be announced in full in the coming weeks. The band will kick off its 2026 live schedule with a top-billed performance at Athens, GA’s annual Jam in the Streets street music festival on March 28, followed by headline dates beginning April 10 at Asheville, NC’s ExploreAsheville.com Arena and continuing through the month. The April run includes two-night stands at Fort Lauderdale, FL’s War Memorial Auditorium (April 14-15), St. Augustine, FL’s St. Augustine Amphitheatre (April 18-19), and New Orleans, LA’s Saenger Theatre (April 21-22), and a special return to Austin, TX’s Moody Center (April 24) following 2024’s sold-out New Year’s Eve shows there, as well as a festival appearance at Orlando, FL’s Florida Groves Music & Arts Festival (April 12).
From there, Goose will return to San José del Cabo for the second edition of Viva El Gonzo, taking place May 7-9 and presented once again by 100x Hospitality. Anchored by three consecutive nights of performances by Goose, the festival will feature sets from My Morning Jacket, Cory Wong, LP Giobbi, Jim James (Acoustic), the California Honeydrops, and more. Goose, known for their genre-blending sound and exploratory live performances, will deliver two sets each night, setting the stage for a weekend full of unforgettable musical discovery. Complete details, tickets, and travel packages can be found exclusively at vivaelgonzo.com.
Goose will then cross the Atlantic for a much-anticipated headline tour of Europe and the United Kingdom, kicking off with a two-night stand at London’s Electric Brixton on May 22-23, 2026. Highlights include a two-night stand at Amsterdam, NL’s Melkweg (May 27-28), a headline show at Paris, FR’s historic Élysée-Montmartre (June 1), and a top-billed festival performance at Aarhus, DK’s NorthSide 2026 (June 5).
Last June, Goose made their Madison Square Garden headline debut with a triumphant, sold-out concert, captured for posterity on Live at Madison Square Garden, a new live album available now at all DSPs and streaming services; a seven-LP vinyl box set is sold out. In addition, a full-length concert film, featuring Goose’s biggest headline show thus far in its entirety, is streaming now on YouTube.

Beck Announces Ride Lonesome Single & Tour
Yesterday, eight-time GRAMMY winner Beck unveiled the stunning new surprise single, “Ride Lonesome.”
Today, Beck follows that hypnotically sublime ballad with the announcement of the Ride Lonesome Tour, a 25-date trek stopping at some of North America’s most renowned theaters and amphitheaters.
The Ride Lonesome Tour, promoted by Live Nation, will kick off September 16 at Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre, with stops including the Santa Barbara Bowl, the Greek in L.A., Red Rocks, two nights each at The Masonic in SF, Massey Hall in Toronto and the Brooklyn Paramount, and more, before concluding October 31 at The Truth in Nashville.
Tickets for Beck’s Ride Lonesome Tour go on sale Friday, April 24 at 10am local time. For further information, go to Beck.com.
Produced by Beck and Mixed by Nigel Godrich, the song “Ride Lonesome” evokes the beautiful and haunting sonic landscapes and textures of 2015 Album of the Year GRAMMY winner Morning Phase and its spiritual predecessor, 2002’s classic Sea Change—and features multiple musicians who played on those milestone releases. From the resonant acoustic guitar strains of its opening to the emotional peaks of its final chorus, this long-awaited new original composition is the first indication of a different yet familiar direction for Beck in the year ahead.
Citi is the official card of the Beck: Ride Lonesome Tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, April 21 at 11am local time until Thursday, April 23 at 10pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program.
