The Walkmen are reuniting. On Tuesday, April 18, the band will perform live on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

This TV performance precedes the band's first tour in a decade where they will travel across the States and abroad into Europe, including a series of five SOLD OUT shows at Manhattan’s Webster Hall, taking place 
on April 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28, in addition to appearances at Shaky Knees (May 7 in Atlanta, GA), Just Like Heaven Music Festival (May 13 in Los Angeles, CA), Kilby Block Party (May 14 in Salt Lake City, UT), Boston Calling (May 28 in Boston, MA), and more.

To accompany the announcement of their original run of shows in NYC, Walkmen frontman Hamilton Leithauser wrote:

"Back in 2013, an unnamed Walkmen band member (Peter Bauer) announced to the Washington Post that we were going on an 'extreme hiatus.' I assumed that meant there would be a lot of monster energy drinks and maybe that red-headed snowboarder guy would be hanging around a lot…but none of that actually happened. Instead, in the ensuing years, we’ve all worked on a ton of different projects in a ton of different places. Recently, someone sent us a clip of us playing at Irving Plaza from 2003, and it just looked very exciting. So, we’ve decided we’d like to play together again. Right now, we are very thrilled to announce that we will be playing at Webster Hall in 2023. See you soon."
