What’s Happening?

Sadly we have to cancel this show.
Here is a message from the band:
Due to personal issues, two members of Gong will not be able to travel to the United States in the fall until September 12 and will only be able to do the tour from September 14 until they complete their work permit visa which expires on September 22, after which they will enter Canada to conclude the tour. Therefore, the concerts in Milwaukee (September 3), Chicago (September 4), Madison (September 5), Indianapolis (September 6), Cincinnati (September 7), Nashville (September 9), Atlanta (September 10), Asheville (September 11), and Charlotte (September 12) have to be canceled. The tour will start on September 14 in Columbus, Ohio.

The band apologizes for the inconvenience and announce that they will return to the United States in the spring of 2027 with their new album.
 
 
All tickets will be refunded.

GONG


KAVUS TORABI vocals, guitar
FABIO GOLFETTI guitar
IAN EAST sax, flute
DAVE STURT bass
CHEB NETTLES drums
 
The ever-metamorphosing entity that is GONG launches, as ever, into unknown – and unknowing – territory with new tours destined to be talked about, discussed, and argued over, up and down the land. From its beginnings in a French commune in 1967, through the Virgin Records years, mismanagement, court cases, break-ups and re-joining’s, deaths and rebirths – there has always been a continuous thread of beautiful, dangerous and extraordinary music.
 

The current holders of the flame have come together over the last eight years; sinuous bass player Dave Sturt joined just as the album 2032 was shown to the world; Ian East (Sax, Flute) was the next to blow in through the portal; Fabio Golfetti brought his guitars from Brazil (after working with Daevid Allen for many years); Kavus Torabi (lead vox and guitars) appeared to Daevid in a vision; Cheb Nettles (drums) just sort of turned up.
 

In 2015, Daevid Allen passed away. His influence and legacy were honoured on the band’s subsequent album, Rejoice! I’m Dead! (2016). In recent years GONG has performed with the Steve Hillage Band (himself a former member of the 1970s GONG line-up) and released the critically acclaimed album The Universe Also Collapses (2019) and a stunning new live album Pulsing Signals (2022) captures the band at a creative peak with tracks drawn from their 2019 tour. Their last studio album, Unending Ascending, was released in November 2023, and they are working on a new one to be released in January of 2026.
 

Gong’s musically diverse world includes shades of psychedelia, space rock, jazz, avant-garde, krautrock and surreal soundscapes.
