Blues Traveler just announced they’re embarking on a summer co-headlining tour with Gin Blossoms and Spin Doctors for the second straight year.
Mid-run, the ’90s hitmakers are slated to make not one, not two, not three, not four but five (!) New York and New Jersey stops. They’re scheduled to go down at:
Saratoga Performing Arts Center
Saratoga Springs, NY
Thursday, July 30
Ocean Casino Resort
Atlantic City, NJ
Saturday, Aug. 1
Stone Pony
Asbury Park, NJ
Thursday, Aug. 6
Constellation Brands Performing Arts Center
Canandaigua, NY
Sunday, Aug. 9
Capital One Summerstage
New York, NY
Saturday, Aug. 15
“We had such a blast last year we are bringing it back to all the places we missed,” Blues Traveler wrote on Instagram.
While out and about, the trio each played approximately 7-13 tracks per show in summer ’25. At one Scottsdale, AZ gig, Blues Traveler performed 13 ditties (including “Run-Around” and “Hook”) while Gin Blossoms delivered 12 tunes (“Hey Jealousy” and “Found Out About You” made the cut, of course) and Spin Doctors rocked a lean, mean seven-song set featuring “Two Princes” and “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong” among other fan favorites.
“Nostalgia usually makes for a fun night, but with these three bands it was more than that,” Misplaced Straws gushed about a July 2025 BT, BG and SD concert. “There was a comradery among them that is rarely seen with package tours…it really showed that great music is timeless and will always find its audience.”
