Newly minted short film director Conor Oberst is returning to his roots as a musician next year with a solo North American tour, dubbed An Alleged Evening with Conor Oberst. His first solo trek since 2019 begins next February in Lawrence, Kansas, and closes out with two back-to-back nights in Estes Park, Colorado. Check out a full list of dates below.
Oberst’s last proper solo performances were in 2024, when he held two four-night residences in Los Angeles and New York, respectively. He dropped his most recent project under his own name, Salutations, in 2017.
As for Bright Eyes, they shared their last EP, Kids Table, last year. This January, they’re playing a few dates at New York’s Brooklyn Paramount to mark the 21st anniversary of their albums I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning and Digital Ash in a Digital Urn.
