RÜFÜS DU SOL Announces Extended Touring Hiatus

The trio says it will not return to the road until it has new music and has given no timetable for a comeback.

Overview

  • The band told fans on Aug. 6 at a Kia Forum show in Inglewood that it will pause touring for a “solid amount of time” until new music is ready.
  • RÜFÜS DU SOL will finish its current North American run, including scheduled dates through September and appearances at Austin City Limits in October, before the break begins.
  • The announcement follows a period of major live success, including four consecutive sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and a world tour that has been reported as the highest-selling electronic tour.
  • Frontman Tyrone Lindqvist framed the pause as a creative choice to focus on making and sharing new work rather than as a breakup, and the group offered no specific return date.
  • Fans and promoters should expect reduced touring availability for the foreseeable future and should watch for a new release as the signal that the trio plans to resume live shows.
