Creed is coming into 2024 with their “Arms Wide Open.”
The post-grunge rockers — who happen to be the Texas Rangers’ favorite band — just announced they’re embarking on the ‘Summer of ’99 Tour’ with special guests 3 Doors Down, Daughtry, Switchfoot, Tonic, Big Wreck and Finger Eleven on select dates from July through September.
Midway through the 40-concert run, the “Higher” band will stop into Holmdel, NJ’s PNC Bank Arts Center on Wednesday, Aug. 7 and Saratoga Springs, NY’s Broadview Stage at SPAC on Saturday, Aug. 24.
They’ll close the run at Darien Center, NY’s Darien Lake Amphitheater on Friday, Sept. 27 and Atlantic City, NJ’s Etess Arena at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on Saturday, Sept. 28.
This upcoming trek will be the band’s first official nationwide tour in over ten years and they’re ready to put on a show.
“I feel like I’m as strong as I’ve ever been vocally, and looking forward to sharing the stage with the guys again,” frontman Scott Stapp shared in a statement. “The fans have clearly let us know they feel it’s long overdue. I want to give them what they deserve. I’m ready to bring it.”
And if you want to hear Stapp’s strong vocals live, you can pick up tickets for the nostalgia fest as soon as today.
