Sigur Ros Set to Embark on US Tour with Wordless Music Orchestra in 2024

The atmospheric soundscapes of Icelandic band Sigur Ros are set to pair with the dynamic 41-piece Wordless Music Orchestra in an expansive US tour slated for September 2024. The tour celebrates their new studio album, Átta, marking a long-awaited return with fresh material for their fans. It follows a handful of collaborative performances between the two entities in 2023, but promises a broader reach across American venues.

Opening Night with a Unique Twist

Opening on September 19 in Detroit, the tour begins with a unique collaboration. Sigur Ros is set to share the stage with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra at Masonic Cathedral Theatre, while subsequent shows will feature the Wordless Music Orchestra. The tour wraps up on October 4 in Austin, Texas, at the Bass Concert Hall.

Ticket Information

Tickets for the series of concerts are highly anticipated, with a presale offered through the official Sigur Ros website. Fans must register by March 3 to participate in the presale, which opens on March 5. The general public can secure tickets via Ticketmaster and Stubhub starting March 8, with additional presale options also available through Ticketmaster. Should presale tickets sell out, Stubhub might provide a secondary opportunity for fans to attend these coveted shows.

Anticipations for Átta

The album Átta marks the first in nearly ten years for Sigur Ros. With the orchestral support of Wordless Music Orchestra, audiences can expect a sublime mix of new tracks alongside beloved classics from the band's discography. The US tour promises to be an unmissable experience for devotees of Sigur Ros' ethereal music.
