The National and the War on Drugs are going on tour together. For now, the bands’ Zen Diagram Tour takes place in September and October. Support on the tour comes from Lucius. See the upcoming tour dates below.

The National played a lot of concerts last year in support of their twin 2023 albums, First Two Pages of Frankenstein and Laugh Track.

The War on Drugs, who most recently shared I Don’t Live Here Anymore in 2021, are lined up to perform at Just Like Heaven in May.

Lucius were among the musicians to accompany Joni Mitchell for her performance of “Both Sides Now” at the 2024 Grammy Awards. The band’s newest album, Second Nature, arrived in April 2022.
