Beginning in Troutdale, Oregon, the join tour will see the two bands making stops in cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Houston and Las Vegas. The Summer Gods tour will wrap up on August 13, in Irvine, California. Australian rockers, Hockey Dad, will take part in the joint tour as the show openers.

Third Eye Blind frontman Stephan Jenkins shared, “The Summer Gods tour always means to us outdoors in warm nights, music and collective joy. In that spirit, it is a treat to make it a whole day of music. We have been wanting to tour with Taking Back Sunday for several years now and Hockey Dad is essential listening on all of our playlists. It’s serendipitous that they will be able to join on the Third Eye Blind’s 25th anniversary.”

“Twenty-five years prompts us to take stock of ourselves, so everyone should expect a comprehensive setlist with all of the songs that meant the most to our fans from the last 25 years as well as songs that are inspiring us now,” added Jenkins.

Taking Back Sunday’s John Nolan also spoke about the band's adoration for Third Eye Blind as they were coming up. He noted, “In the early days of Taking Back Sunday, Adam [Lazzara] and I used to drive around in his old Honda listening to Third Eye Blind’s second album, Blue; windows down, smoking cigarettes and singing along. If someone had told us back then that one day we’d tour together, it would’ve blown our minds. We’re so excited to be out with Third Eye Blind this summer, singing our songs and singing along with theirs.”
