Love Gang Start US & Canada Touring June 7
I’m kind of assuming this tour’s been announced for a bit since it’s starting in a couple weeks, but cool to see Colorado classic heavy rockers Love Gang hitting the road hard and supporting an outfit like Wolfmother. A tour that I’ve no doubt will win them some new fans, in other words. As you can see in the photo on the tour poster, Love Gang are down to a three-piece after drummer Shaun Goodwin (also The Munsens) relocated to my beloved Garden State. I’m not sure who’ll be handling drum duties for this tour or going forward, but obviously somebody or it likely wouldn’t be happening. A quick bit of research — by which I mean going to their Bandcamp — shows Xavier Cruz in the role alongside guitarist/vocalist Kam Wentworth, bassist Luigi Muñoz and organist/flutist Leo Muñoz. Score one for investagative journalism.
Only not really, since I’m not sure what that means about who’s going on this run since there are still only three dudes in the photo below. I’m doing my best here, folks, I promise.
Love Gang‘s most recent outing was 2023’s Meanstreak (review here), and surely a full run of the US keeping company with a band who’ve been an audience draw for over two decades would be a killer way to work out new material on the road, so hopefully that’s how it goes. I haven’t heard news about new material in progress, but that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been any. They’ve got shows on their own for the tour’s off-nights, and you’ll see those noted with the rose emoji below.
