Sleater-Kinney and Liz Phair are hitting the road for a co-headlining run, bringing a double dose of 1990s nostalgia to U.S. venues this September. Dubbed the Flannel and the Fury, the tour brings together the alt-rock giants for the first time, with dates in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and other cities. Check out the itinerary below.
Phair said in a press release, “The Flannel and The Fury is a nod to 1990s alt-rock culture and the female-fronted bands who staked their claim to center stage in a male-dominated music industry. Sleater-Kinney and I both cut our teeth in the early Riot Girl scene. It’s been a dream of mine ever since to bring our music and our fans together for one night of reckless hope and musical splendor. We’ll see you there!”
Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker added, “For those of us who listened to Exile in Guyville on repeat in 1993, Liz Phair has always been a leader and a truth-sayer for the female experience. She’s a legend and a stone cold classic; what a thrill to share the stage with one of our biggest inspirations—we can’t wait to tear it up with her. See you soon!”
Not listed below are four Liz Phair shows booked concurrently with the tour that do not feature Sleater-Kinney: Those are in St. Paul, Minnesota; Portland, Maine; Albany, New York; and at the Oceans Calling Festival in Maryland.
