Gruff Rhys announces NYC & LA solo shows

Not only are Super Furry Animals giving their 2001 magnum opus Rings Around the World a 20th anniversary reissue, frontman Gruff Rhys will be coming to the U.S. for two shows in support of his excellent new solo album Seeking New Gods.

The shows happen at NYC's TV Eye on September 9 (tickets) and LA's Gold-Diggers on September 13 (tickets).

"If all goes to plan I’ll be singing some solo shows in NYC and LA in September to celebrate the release of my new album Seeking New Gods," Gruff says. "Please note - If you’re hoping to come to these shows from outside the cities please be careful not to make any non-refundable travel plans at this point as they are dependent on COVID international travel restrictions. Thank you!"

Those are Gruff's only upcoming U.S. dates, but he's got several upcoming shows in the UK and Ireland. All dates are listed below.
