Emo and power-pop torchbearers Oso Oso have officially announced a sprawling North American trek for the fall. Led by Jade Lilitri, the band will hit dozens of US cities and Toronto alongside support acts Leisure Hour, Bad Luck, Liquid Mike, and Bugsy.
Here is the kicker for fans tracking the band’s rollout: tickets go on sale at 10 AM ET on Friday, and anyone signed up for Oso Oso’s Laylo messaging platform will receive a direct text link to listen to a brand-new song titled “The Nights.” It marks their first new single of the year, following up on 2025’s “Bad News” and their 2024 full-length, Life Till Bones.
The Bottom Line
- The Tour: Oso Oso embarks on the “An Exchange of Information Tour” this fall across North America, featuring two distinct legs of supporting acts.
- New Music: Fans registered on Laylo will score exclusive access to a brand-new single, “The Nights,” when tickets drop.
- The Schedule: The routing spans major underground and indie rooms from mid-October through late November, starting in Allston and wrapping up in St. Louis.
Mapping the Fall Route: Two Distinct Leg Configurations
Lilitri and company are splitting the tour into two distinct sonic packages, bringing along a rotating cast of indie-rock and punk mainstays. The first leg kicks off on October 7 at Brighton Music Hall in Allston, MA, running through eastern and midwestern strongholds like Racket NYC, the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia, and Toronto’s The Garrison, with Leisure Hour and Bad Luck locked in as direct support.
By November, the operation shifts westward. A second leg featuring Liquid Mike and Bugsy takes over starting November 3 at Columbus’s A&R Music Bar. That stretch takes the tour across the Midwest and Pacific Northwest—including stops at Seattle’s The Vera Project and Portland’s High Limit Room—before winding down through California, Texas, and a final November 24 date at Off Broadway in St. Louis.
