Queens of the Stone Age are going into this year with their pedal to the metal. The group announced Tuesday a select number of additional U.S. performances as part of their ongoing The End is Nero Tour. Very special guests for the shows will be Royal Blood. Check out the full itinerary below.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, February 2 at 10am local time.

Before this run, Queens of the Stone Age are mounting another brief trek across Canada with The Struts. The run begins on April 1 at Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta and wraps up on April 17 at Scotiabank Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Queens of the Stone Age are poised for a huge year in 2024. In addition to their own tour dates, the group will be making featured appearances at Hellfest (France), Welcome to Rockville (US), Rock am Ring/Rock im Park (Germany), and more. In June, the band will be headlining Download Festival in the UK alongside Avenged Sevenfold and Fall Out Boy. In our review of the band’s show at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, New York over the summer, we declared: “Next spring, they should be a fine choice to top any festival bill.”

Thankfully, Download got the memo.

Queens of the Stone Age’s latest album In Times New Roman arrived last June 16 via Matador. It was recorded and mixed at frontman Josh Homme’s own Pink Duck, with additional recording at Shangri-La. The album was produced by the band and mixed by Mark Rankin. It is available across all digital platforms, as well as vinyl and CD. Artwork and double LP gatefold packaging was designed by long time collaborator Boneface. The LP vinyl is available globally in standard black, as well as limited edition green, red, silver and blue.

Royal Blood released their latest LP, Back to the Water, last September. It was anchored by the single, “Mountains at Midnight.” The group embarked on a full North American tour late last year, which included a featured performance at Sea Hear Now in New Jersey.
