Flight of the Conchords Announce More U.S. Tour Dates
Musical Comedy Duo to Try Out New Material on U.S. Tour
Mar 28, 2016 Flight of the Conchords
Beloved New Zealand musical comedy duo Flight of the Conchords (Bret McKenzie + Jemaine Clement) recently announced their first U.S. tour dates in three years, including a headlining slot at the Newport Folk Festival. Now our favorite Kiwis have announced even more dates on the “Flight of the Conchords sing Flight of the Conchords Tour.”
The new dates are as such:
June 25th - Portland, OR - Keller Auditorium
June 28th - San Francisco, CA - Shoreline Amphitheater
July 10th - Austin, TX - Bass Concert Hall
July 20th - New York, NY - Forest Hills Stadium
July 26th - Los Angeles, CA - Greek Theatre
A press release promises that, “Jemaine and Bret have new material in the works, which they’ll showcase exclusively at these shows.” The band has also teamed up with the charity Global Citizen for the tour. The complete list of dates is below.
Last year Clement revealed he and McKenzie had been brainstorming ideas for a Flight of the Conchords movie. The New Zealand comedy duo had a beloved TV show (also titled Flight of the Conchords) that ran for two seasons on HBO, in which they starred as two hapless New Zealand folk singers also named Bret and Jemaine who were trying to make it in New York City. They also released two comedy albums and an EP on Sub Pop, the last one being 2009’s I Told You I Was Freaky.
