The tour celebrates their upcoming album Butter Miracle, The Complete Sweets!, set for release in May 9. The new record features four songs from their 2021 EP Butter Miracle: Suite One, alongside new tracks.

The announcement follows the first single from the new album, 'Spaceman In Tulsa', which launched on February 21.

"'Spaceman In Tulsa' is about metamorphosis - the way music breaks down who we were and spins us into something new," said frontman Adam Duritz. "It’s about broken lives becoming something better."

Counting Crows debuted in 1993 with August and Everything After. In the 30 years since, the band has released seven studio albums, sold 20 million records globally and were nominated for a Grammy, an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for their single 'Accidentally In Love', written for Shrek 2.

Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10.00am, starting at €70.85. Full tour information can be found here.
