Announcing the next batch of dates for The Bad Plus Farewell Tour! Tickets go on sale this Friday (link in bio). Please join us if you can! With love @notreidanderson@googlebully #benmonder @chrisspeed11
Dear friends and fans,
The Bad Plus has been a band for 26 years. That’s quite a long time! As we enter into year 27 - after a great deal of soul searching and consideration - we have decided to bring this chapter to a close. 2026 will be the final year of The Bad Plus. We share this news with heavy hearts, but also with great pride in what we have accomplished. It has been a privilege to share our music with the world and we leave behind a body of work that we could not be more proud of.
We look forward to performing our final shows throughout the coming year and hope to see as many of you as possible. This band changed our lives. Thank you all for being a part of that.
With love and gratitude,
Reid and Dave
