American jamband Spafford are set to finally celebrate their revolution around the sun by coming back on their axis with a celebration in Tempe, Ariz.'s Marquee Theatre on Dec. 30 and 31.
The quartet – comprised of Brain Moss, Nick Tkachyk, Jordan Fairless, and Andrew “Red” Johnson – formed in Arizona and debuted with a New Year's show in 2009. The performance will come hot on the heels of their extensive fall tour, which includes five shows in Florida: Pensacola (Nov. 15), Gainesville (Nov. 16), Tampa (Nov. 17), Ft. Lauderdale (Nov. 18), and Leesburg (Nov. 19).
Spafford's ringing the New Year has long been the norm, and the band did their best even in 2020 by planning some of the first distanced drive-in shows at the Digital Drive-In in Mesa, Ariz. While the shows garnered excitement and media attention countrywide, they were ultimately postponed until April. Their New Year's shows in 2021, set for New York City's Gramercy Theatre and two nights at the Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia, were also nixed. However, this year things are looking bright, with show cancelations and their lowest point since 2020.
Tickets for Spafford’s New Year’s at the Marquee Theatre go on sale Friday, Sept. 10. Find tickets here.
