Built To Spill

Portland‑originated indie rock outfit Built to Spill blends jangly guitars, layered melodies, and introspective lyricism into a sound that helped define the 1990s alternative scene while remaining fresh in recent releases. The group is celebrated for marathon live performances that weave deep cuts with fan favorites, often extending songs into atmospheric passages. Their concerts have built a reputation for emotional intensity and a loyal, engaged audience, even after periods of hiatus. The band will launch a 20‑date United States headline tour on Sep 19, 2026 at El Rey in Albuquerque, followed by shows in Fort Worth, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Houston, New Orleans, Memphis, Tulsa, Kansas City, Boulder, Brooklyn, Albany, Cambridge, Ardmore, Wantagh, and Rutherford, concluding with a Nov 7, 2026 performance in Rutherford.
