Of Montreal will take their live show on the road this summer, playing venues across the United States from mid‑June into early August. The tour arrives after a recent anniversary reissue and the band’s 2024 studio album, offering audiences a chance to hear both classic material and newer songs live.
The lineup for the run is led by frontman Kevin Barnes with support from Los Angeles art-rock outfit Sloppy Jane and Austin punk group Cormae. The first leg, through late June and the first days of July, pairs Of Montreal with Cormae; a second leg beginning in late July features Sloppy Jane as the opening act.
Why this tour matters now
Beyond the routine summer circuit, this schedule follows the band’s 20th‑anniversary reissue of their 2005 record and the release of Lady on the Cusp in 2024—moments that have renewed interest in their catalog. For longtime fans and newcomers alike, the dates present a rare opportunity to hear material spanning the group’s career in an intimate setting.
Expect the shows to mix theatrical staging and unpredictable arrangements that have defined Of Montreal’s live reputation. Kevin Barnes’s songwriting tends to shift between melodrama and sharp pop, so setlists often blend high‑energy numbers with more experimental passages.
