A surprise single deserves a surprise fall tour. After dropping the melancholy single “Ride Lonesome” with no notice on Monday (April 20), Beck has unveiled the dates for his upcoming 25-date fall Ride Lonesome tour.

The run through some of the most iconic North American theaters and amphitheaters is slated to kick off on Sept. 16 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver, and continue on to Portland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Omaha, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Atlanta before winding down on Oct. 31 at The Truth in Nashville.


Tickets for the Live Nation-promoted tour will go on sale on Friday (April 24) at 10 a.m. local time; click here for details. The general on sale will be preceded by a Citi presale open now through 10 p.m. local time on Thursday (April 23) here.

The tour will support the singer’s new single, “Ride Lonesome,” which bears a similar sonic footprint as two of Beck’s most beloved albums, with good reason. The track produced by Beck and mixed by Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, U2) has the airy, melancholy feel of the 2015 album of the year Grammy winner Morning Phase as well as spiritual sibling, 2002’s Sea Change. The song also features many of the same musicians who played on those albums, including bassist Justin Meldal-Johnson, guitarists Smokey Hormel and Jason Falkner, drummer Joey Waronker and keyboardist Roger Joseph Manning Jr.
