The Beta Band are back. For the first time in over 20 years, the Scottish post-rock outfit is reuniting for a tour that promises to bring their cult-favorite sound to fans old and new.
The band will be pulling deep from The Three E.P.’s—the compilation that cemented their status as left-field legends—alongside other fan favorites.

The tour kicks off in Glasgow on September 25 before crossing the Atlantic for a North American run starting in mid-October.
Stops include Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, Boston, and Philadelphia, with the grand finale set for Brooklyn on November 1.
A Live Nation pre-sale for select dates starts Wednesday, March 5, at 10:00 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster with general sales opening Friday, March 7, at 10:00 a.m. local time. Tickets will also be available via AXS.
Emerging from the fertile late-’90s UK music scene, The Beta Band blended folk, psychedelia, hip-hop beats, and experimental rock into something entirely their own.
They broke through with The Three E.P.’s, a collection of early tracks that became a go-to reference for crate-diggers and indie heads alike.
While they never quite cracked the mainstream, their influence stretched far—if you’ve ever fallen for the woozy grooves of Animal Collective or the genre-blurring experiments of Beck, you’ve heard a bit of The Beta Band’s DNA in there.
