Nickel Creek Plots Extensive 2024 U.S. Tour

Bandmates Chris Thile, Sara Watkins, and Sean Watkins will kick off the trek with a performance in Iowa City, Iowa, on February 6. They’ll spend nearly three months traveling to cities across the U.S., including Indianapolis, Columbus, Jacksonville, and Buffalo, before taking the stage for a final performance in Little Rock on May 2.

These just-released show dates will help kickstart another new chapter for the beloved act. Earlier this year, the group made a long-awaited comeback onto the music scene with the release of Celebrants. The captivating 18-track LP marked their first new full-length project in nine years.

Over the decades, Nickel Creek has returned from multiple hiatuses, allowing the three bandmates to pursue their own solo projects. Although nearly a decade has passed between their acclaimed fourth album, A Dotted Line, and the arrival of Celebrants, the gifted bluegrass-centered outfit sounds as cohesive as ever.
