  • Incubus announce 2024 US Tour including stop in Tampa, performing iconic album “Morning View” in its entirety!

    The alternative rock legends Incubus are setting out on a 10-date tour across North America this summer including a stop in Tampa. Incubus have announced their 2024 US Arena tour, performing their iconic album “Morning View” in its entirety, plus the alt rockers will perform all their greatest hits too. Produced by Live Nation, the 10-city tour kicks off on August 23 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit making stops across the U.S. including a stop in Tampa on September 3 when the band will take to the stage at Amalie Arena with special guest Coheed and Cambria.

Incubus originally released their critically acclaimed studio album Morning View on October 23, 2001, and were met with an outpouring of love and acclaim from fans and industry alike. The album has been RIAA certified double Platinum and spent 60 weeks on the Billboard 200 peaking at number 2. On October 6, 2023, the band announced the re-recording and re-release of the acclaimed double album entitled Morning View XXIII  (Virgin Music Group), which is set for an album release date of May 10th, 2024.  Morning View XXIII preorders will begin alongside the general tour on sale this Friday, February 9, and you can presave HERE. “Roughly 23 years ago we rented a house at the sea to do an art experiment. The novel and expansive environment combined with a healthy dose of momentum helped us find that ever sought after FLOW state and the songs that became known as ‘Morning View’ have since become indelible and deeply important parts of our lives,” said Brandon Boyd. “This album helped propel our little art experiment called ‘Incubus’ into a way of life and here we are today, some 23 years later, about to introduce a new/next phase of it’s existence. ‘Morning View xxiii’ is a re-recording/re-think of the 2001 album and is the result of our desire to honor this burgeoning legacy but also reimagine it as musicians who have been lovingly performing these songs night after night for the last 23 years. See you on the road soon!” For the latest concert announcements, presale codes and more be sure to check out our latest live music and concert news, and for all the latest entertainment news click here.
