’90s Rock Band, Disbanded for Three Years, Announces News on World Tour

Weezer has announced new international dates for its upcoming Weezer: The Gathering tour, adding shows across the United Kingdom, Europe and Japan as the ’90s rock band prepares to release its 20th studio album, Weezer, also known as The Gold Album.

The band shared the ticket information on Instagram, telling fans that “New international gathering sites across the UK, Europe and Japan have been discovered. Preparation for these shows is key.”

    The newly announced dates will take Weezer to Japan in February 2027 before the group heads to the UK and Europe in May and June 2027. The international shows follow the band’s North American tour, which begins Sept. 8 in Sacramento, California, and runs through late October.

    The band’s North American tour will feature The Shins and Silversun Pickups as opening acts. Taking Back Sunday will support Weezer on the overseas dates.

    Although Weezer is sometimes described as a band that “disbanded” in the late 1990s, the group never formally broke up, according to All Music. Instead, the band went through a long hiatus after the release and tour for its 1996 album, Pinkerton.

    Weezer completed the Pinkerton tour in 1997 before its members turned their attention to separate projects. Patrick Wilson worked with The Special Goodness, Brian Bell continued with Space Twins, and bassist Matt Sharp focused on The Rentals. Rivers Cuomo also returned to Harvard and spent much of the period away from the band writing songs.

    Weezer began coming back together in 2000 after accepting an offer to perform at Japan’s Fuji Rock Festival. The reunion led to new rehearsals, recordings and live performances before the band released its self-titled third album, commonly called the Green Album, in 2001.

    That comeback began a new chapter for the group, which has continued recording and touring for more than two decades.

    The new tour announcement comes as Weezer prepares to release its new album on Aug. 21 through Reprise Records/Warner Records.

    The self-titled record is the band’s 20th studio album and is also known as The Gold Album. Weezer has already released “Shine Again” and “We Might as Well Be Strangers,” the latter featuring Karly Hartzman of Wednesday.

    The band has now released its third single, “C.E.O.”, along with a music video packed with guest appearances.

    The video features Tony Hawk, Curry Barker, Dax Flame, Chit, Rob Riggle, Rob Huebel, Michael Peña, Giovanni Ribisi and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.

    The “C.E.O.” video also looks back at one of Weezer’s best-known early videos, the 1994 clip for “Undone (The Sweater Song).” This time, the band performs in front of a gold backdrop instead of the original blue one.

    Cuomo recently explained to Rolling Stone the idea behind the song, saying, “I was bemoaning the fact that I’m finding myself in this role that doesn’t really work with being an artist. Everyone loved the song, but nobody liked that line. We ended up externalizing it; it’s like I’ve externalized this part of myself that’s bringing down the party.”

    The album follows Van Weezer, released in 2021, and the four-part SZNZ project from 2022.
