Kicking off with an appearance in Maryland Heights, Mo., at the UMB Bank Pavilion on June 17, the tour culminates with a double-night stand at the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Wash., September 4-5.

As DMB fans know, last summer’s tour finished up with the Concert in Central Park, which drew more than 100,000 fans and raised over $2 million for public education and New York City’s parks.

“Our time working on outside projects has made all of us really eager to get back out on the road again,” said violinist Tinsley, who released a solo album, True Reflections, last year.

Beginning next month the band will start pre-production on a new studio album in Charlottesville, Va.
