Bassist Karina Rykman is gearing up for her highly-anticipated Joyride Tour 2023 in support of her forthcoming debut album, Joyride, set to be released on Aug. 18. The headlining tour will mark Rykman’s biggest venture yet, with special guest Guerilla Toss joining her on select dates.

The band will kick off their headlining tour at Baby’s All Right in Brooklyn, N.Y., on Sept. 20. They will then make their way to the Jersey Shore before venturing through various Southern states, including Maryland, Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee.

In October, Rykman and her bandmates will head westward for shows in California, Oregon, and Washington, before returning to the Northeast to conclude the tour. The final leg will include stops in New York, Vermont, Maine, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts, with the tour wrapping up in Boston on Dec. 16.

“We’re hitting the road this Fall, and I’m absolutely honored to be taking the mighty @guerillatoss along with us for a good bunch of it!” shared Rykman on social media. “Hitting so many places we’ve never been before for our biggest headline tour to date, it’s beyond exciting and feels like a continuation of this very surreal dream. Can’t WAIT to be out there with all of you!”

Before embarking on the Joyride Tour, Rykman and her band have a series of festival appearances lined up throughout the summer. They will grace the stages of The Peach Music Festival in Scranton, Pa., All IN Festival in Indianapolis, Ind., The Miracle in Mundelein outside of Chicago, and more.
