Fresh off a trek with the B-52's late last year, the band announced a West Coast run aptly titled the Mutate, Don't Stagnate tour, and has now filled out its 2026 schedule with a batch of June dates in Eastern North America. All those shows will take place ahead of Devo's remaining Cosmic De-Evolution Tour gigs with the B-52's, in England.
Devo have announced a 2026 North American tour comprised of two legs. The legendary new wave band will hit the road in both April and June. First up on the "Mutate, Don't Stagnate" tour, Devo will play a handful of shows surrounding their two gigs at the Coachella festival, beginning with an April 3rd concert in Wheatland, California. In June, they'll hit the Midwest and Northeast, with dates running from a June 2nd show in Indianapolis through a June 13th stop in Mashantucket, Connecticut.
The two legendary bands were joined by pioneering new wave artist Lene Lovich as the opening act. In the midst of an unseasonably warm stretch of weather, it was a beautiful night on Long Island as Lovich kicked off the outdoor concert at 7 p.m. sharp. Dressed in gothic garb from head to toe, the 76-year-old singer performed a 35-minute set of her classic songs, including her signature tune "Lucky Number."
