+LIVE+ broke onto the scene in 1991 with the release of their major label debut, Mental Jewelry. Produced by Talking Heads’ Jerry Harrison, the album not only introduced a bold new voice in alternative rock, but moved more than 1 million copies in the United States—earning Platinum certification, With searing tracks like “Operation Spirit (The Tyranny of Tradition)” (Top 10 on U.S. Modern Rock), “Pain Lies on the Riverside,” and “Beauty of Grey,” +LIVE+ delivered raw emotion, spiritual depth, and virtuosic funk-inflected elements that would become their signature sound. More than three decades on, Mental Jewelry remains a foundational work still stirring hearts and garnering a whole new generation of fans for the band.

Luke Combs Announces 12 New Stadium Shows for 2027 ‘My Kinda Saturday Night Tour’
Luke Combs is extending his My Kinda Saturday Night Tour into 2027, announcing 12 new stadium shows across the United States.
The new dates continue the tour that Combs launched in 2026, though fans can expect a different lineup of opening acts. Treaty Oak Revival, Avery Anna, Shenandoah and Wyatt McCubbin will join Combs at various stops throughout the 2027 run.
The tour takes its name from “My Kinda Saturday Night,” a song from Combs’ latest album, The Way I Am. The singer recently wrapped the 2026 leg with three sold-out performances at London’s Wembley Stadium.
For now, the 12 newly announced stadium concerts are the only dates listed on Combs’ official tour calendar. Tickets for all 12 shows go on sale August 21.
The announcement had been teased throughout the week, with several venues revealing details before Combs officially announced the dates on Thursday morning.
The limited schedule reflects a shift in how Combs is approaching life on the road. With three young children — ages four, nearly three and six months — the singer has spoken about putting more time aside for his family. The days of spending most of the week away from home may be becoming less common for the country star.
That does not mean Combs is stepping away from the stage. Every 2027 date announced so far is scheduled at a football stadium with a capacity of at least 60,000 people.
The strategy is similar to one adopted by several major country artists in recent years, including Morgan Wallen: fewer shows in much larger venues. Rather than spending months on the road playing arenas and smaller venues, Combs can reach a large audience with a limited number of performances.
For fans, that makes each stop a bigger event. For Combs, it offers a way to keep touring while spending more time at home with his family.
Tickets go on sale August 21.

April 3 — Arlington, Texas @ AT&T Stadium
