Pearl Jam bringing 2024 Dark Matter Tour to Philadelphia in September. Here's how to get tickets
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Pearl Jam is back with a new album and a new world tour that will see the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame band play two concerts in September at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
The band on Tuesday announced its 12th studio album, "Dark Matter," and released its lead single and title track.
Pearl Jam will play two shows at Wells Fargo Center on Saturday, Sept. 7, and Monday, Sept. 9.
Pearl Jam is no stranger to Philadelphia - the band performed its debut album "Ten" in full in April 2016 and also dedicated its song "Release" to Colin McGovern, who was fatally stabbed in Rittenhouse Square in 2016.
The tour will see Pearl Jam play in nine countries and 25 cities.
"Dark Matter" is a 12-track album and Pearl Jam's first album since 2020's "Gigaton."
The band previewed the album at Troubadour in West Hollywood during GRAMMY week, with lead singer Eddie Vedder saying he believes it's "our best work," according to a news release.
