You would be hard pressed to find an alternative music act today that does not cite The Pixies among its very top influences. The Pixies played a crucial role in shaping the face of rock music, and they did so mostly in the background. Many musicians and fans did not discover the band until long after they disbanded, but lucky for every mucic fan, this seminal group has embarked on several Pixies tour schedules in the past few years, bringing their groundbreaking music and sound to a whole new generation of listeners.

The Pixies first played together in Boston in ‘86 and then disbanded in ‘93. Much of their success initially came in Europe, but they have since become known as one of the most influential acts in American rock music. The group reformed in ‘04 and has always been comprised of the same members, which are Frank Black, Kim Deal, Joey Santiago and David Lovering. In their initial run, The Pixies released two albums that have since become modern day classics, which are “Doolittle” (including singles “Here Comes Your Man” and “Monkey Gone to Heaven”) and “Surfer Rosa,” featuring perhaps their best known song “Where Is My Mind,” a song used at the end of the cult classic film “Fight Club.” Over the years numerous bands have mentioned the Pixies as being a major influence, including Radiohead and Weezer.

Since The Pixies have reformed, they have headlined festivals including Lollapalooza, Coachella and Sasquatch!. Currently, the Pixies tour schedule runs through the end of ’10 and it certainly could be extended beyond that. During these dates on The Pixies concert schedule, they will be playing their classic album “Doolittle” in its entirety.
