Ratboys are hitting the road!

Just a week after completing their five-week US tour, Ratboys are embarking on a two-week UK and EU tour. They'll have copies of their new album, The Window, which Pitchfork says is among "The Best Music of 2023 So Far". If you haven't picked up a copy yet, they'll have them on CD, cassette, and vinyl too for you analog media heads.



Dates and info are below, along with info for their hometown Chicago show next month (which is very close to selling out so grab your tickets now while you still can, Chicagoans!).

You can always play along at home or listen to their new cover of The Beatles' "I Want to Hold Your Hand" for FADER & Friends Vol. 1, FADER's 44-song compilation benefitting transgender charities.

Ratboys - The Window

Ratboys
The Window

The solidified Ratboys lineup stretched and expanded their vision in the studio, adding unexpected elements and instruments like rototoms, talkboxes, and fiddles. The result is Ratboys’ most sonically diverse record, shifting wildly from track to track. After more than ten years and four studio albums, The Window finally captures Ratboys as they were always meant to be heard—expansive while still intimate, audacious while still tender—the sound of four friends operating as a single, cohesive unit.
