Glass Animals Plot 2024 World Tour

It includes a pair of Canadian shows in Toronto and Vancouver

BY Megan LaPierre Published Apr 4, 2024

Just yesterday (April 3), Glass Animals announced their fourth studio album, I Love You So F***ing Much . Now, they're already back with plans for a global tour, which includes many North American dates — two of which will take place in Canada this summer, with concerts scheduled in Toronto and Vancouver.

The Human Musical Group Sensations Glass Animals: Tour of Earth tour (that's a mouthful!) gets started later this month with a couple of one-off shows in Pioneertown, CA, and Mexico City, Mexico. The run proper kicks off on August 7 in Charlotte, NC, with the band making their first Canadian stop at Toronto's Budweiser Stage on August 20. There, they'll be joined by former BROCKHAMPTON member Kevin Abstract , who will rotate as tour support on select dates with Eyedress , Blondshell and the Big Moon .

Glass Animals return to Canada the following month for a performance at Vancouver's Pepsi Live at Rogers Arena on September 8. They'll wrap their North American dates later in September ahead of a slate of UK and European dates through October and November, currently set to wrap on November 7 in London.

Tickets go on sale April 11, following various presales beginning April 9 at 10 a.m. local time. Find the itinerary in its entirety below.

“I love you so f***ing much, I LOVE YOU SO F***ING MUCH, I love you SO f***ing MUCH, I love you  so F***ING much, I LOVE you so f***ing MUCH. These words take on a different meaning every time you say them. The universe may make us feel overwhelmingly small, but we have this human connection that is far vaster and more mysterious. Love comes in an infinite number of forms and shapes and sizes. It is so complex, and so powerful that even witnessing the tiniest instance of it can change your life forever.” - Dave Bayley

5 APRIL 2024 (TORONTO, ON) - Grammy and BRIT-nominated, platinum, diamond-selling British band Glass Animals announce details of their global headline tour for 2024. The news follows the announcement of their highly-anticipated fourth studio album I Love You So F***ing Much and release of the first single from the record, ‘ Creatures in Heaven .’ Revealing 44 dates, the extensive tour will take the band across the US, Europe and England, kicking off in America this August and concluding in London’s 20,000-capacity The O2 Arena on 7 November. Fans who pre-order the album will have access to early pre-sale tickets going live at 10am (Local Time) on 9 April . General on-sale will go live at 10am (Local Time) on 11 April .

PRE-ORDER I LOVE YOU SO F***ING MUCH

LISTEN TO ‘CREATURES IN HEAVEN’

I Love You So F***ing Much is to be released on 19 July 2024 on Polydor Records / Universal Music Canada. It is the follow-up to 2020’s critically revered Dreamland , which sold over 12M copies globally and gave life to ‘Heat Waves’, the record-breaking song that became the biggest international hit from a British band in almost 30 years. It was the first song to reach #1 with a single writer and producer since Pharell’s ‘Happy,’ and led to the pop world’s biggest acts, including Florence Welch, all wanting to work with Glass Animals frontman, songwriter and producer, Dave Bayley. But the birth of I Love You So F***ing Much was an existential crisis. Dave found himself struggling to make sense of this newfound global stardom, having watched it all happen while the world was in lockdown. “Life can change dramatically, but sometimes you aren’t able to change as quickly on a personal level. You end up feeling like a spectator. And then you are asked and expected to be a certain type of person, a different person. But…I wasn’t sure how. It confused me to the point of not knowing who I was or if anything was real.” It took being stranded on a cliff in a wooden house on stilts during one of California’s biggest storms in history to push that feeling into a full existential crisis. In forced isolation, watching trees tumble down mountains and assuming “death was coming,” Dave began asking questions of himself, of the universe and of the human experience: namely, love. As he came to accept himself as an introvert, Dave realised that “human connection and the love between us is much bigger, more important, and more complex than anything else” . Creatures in Heaven  is the sublime first glimpse into 10 intimate love stories set against the backdrop of the universe.

Wanting to bring fans into the sci-fi-inspired world of I Love You So F***ing Much early, Glass Animals set up a landing page that simply read “Panic. Answer the Question please” (a nod to Douglas Adams' infamous Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy). With 15,000 questions posed to the band within the first couple of days, they set about trawling through them: What's going on (existentially)? Will Glass Animals perform in Space? Are we hitchhiking the universe? What is the meaning of life? To Dave, it’s a continuation of the Open Source website the band started in the pandemic.  A site where fans could download jpegs and mp3s from the band, share them and create their own artwork and tunes. Engaging with each other and Glass Animals in a deeper way, this modernist iteration of “Ask Me Anything” sparked a conversation around the power of love in a-what-can-sometimes-feel-like-a cold and loveless world.

In the build-up to the album’s announcement cryptic flyposters, graffiti and billboards of the album’s title have been popping up globally since Valentine's Day, with the band officially revealing the first visual taste of the album, the cosmic zoom , on socials earlier this month. Last week Dave began sharing “Desperately Seeking Dave” ads in local newspapers, prompting fans to find him for an exclusive play of the single before its release across London, NYC and Kansas City. Glass Animals have also announced intimate pop-up shows for this Spring, selling out instantly, they’ll be taking place in California (at the legendary Pappy + Harriet’s in The Mojave Desert) and Mexico City. More shows are due to be announced soon.

Having a bird’s-eye view of life is a view that Glass Animals have become comfortable with. Dreamland was released during the pandemic in 2020, and it was the album that elevated Glass Animals to mythical status. The single Heat Waves broke records across the planet, becoming the first song by a British band since the Spice Girls’ Wannabe in 1995, to claim #1 for 5 consecutive weeks in the Billboard 100. Having achieved Grammy and BRIT nominations, being crowned Triple J’s Hottest 100 winner, claiming over 44B global streams and becoming the first British band to achieve #1 in the Spotify global chart, whilst holding space in the Billboard Hot 100 for longer than the Weekends Blinding Lights . But the backdrop of this critical success was a band locked in their separate homes; a form of “detachment”. 

Glass Animals toured the album when the world was just emerging from the pandemic. There was still so much unknown, and artists couldn’t get insurance for tours. “It was survival mode. We had to frontload the tour. We had no insurance on the shows. We just had to make them happen and be very careful. My manager and I wrote a manual that other artists ended up using at venues. Dreamland became the dream. We were basically jumping on stage, doing the show, then back in this silent metal tube [the bus]. It was quite odd. We were like, is this real?”. The four-piece; Dave, Drew MacFarlane (guitar, keys), Edmund Irwin-Singer (bass, keys) and Joe Seaward (drums) who all met at school, saw huge flashes of how far their music had come - from crowds outside buses to post-show street parties after the show spilling out of the New York subway - but all from the confines of the metal tube. This detachment was heightened when the band made it to the Grammys, only to be stopped before the event by Dave getting Covid. They had come so close to the tangible but were still so far away from it. Having sold well over 340K tickets globally, Glass Animals commenced their UK tour, headlining Alexandra Palace in a triumphant show to mark the end of 2021, and the end of a rollercoaster time that changed their lives forever. Finding sense in that chaos is where I Love You So F***ing Much begins. Join the love space odyssey today.

Glass Animals is bringing the Tour of Earth to Vancouver

Hot on the heels of its upcoming album announcement, Glass Animals has revealed its plans for an upcoming world tour—chaotically named the Human Musical Group Sensations Glass Animals: Tour of Earth. And Vancouver has made the cut.

The Oxford-based band will hit Europe, North America, and home base of the UK on a 41-date tour in support of its upcoming fourth studio album, I Love You So F***ing Much .

The tour blasts off on August 7 in Charlotte, and will jet to cities including New York, Toronto, and Nashville before landing in Vancouver on September 8 at Rogers Arena.

The psychedelic indie rock outfit’s latest single, “Creatures in Heaven”, will feature on the new album—which is set to release in July.

“Life can change dramatically, but sometimes you aren’t able to change as quickly on a personal level,” frontman Dave Bayley introspects in a release. “You end up feeling like a spectator. And then you are asked and expected to be a certain type of person, a different person. But…I wasn’t sure how. It confused me to the point of not knowing who I was or if anything was real.”

Mysterious? Yes. Intriguing? Also yes.

Glass Animals is an indie rock band from Oxford, UK. Its music is a highly eclectic blend of different sounds, which include pop, rock, and psychedelic music. Glass Animals’ unique sound continues to garner new fans, as well as coveted gigs with well-known musicians.

The band has played numerous headlining gigs as well as opened up for such artists as St. Vincent, Metronomy, and Yeasayer.

The band is a collaboration between four childhood friends: frontman/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Dave Bayley, guitarist and keyboardist Drew MacFarlane, bassist and keyboardistEdmund Irwin-Singer, and drummer Joe Seaward. Bayley was raised in the United States but returned to his native England at age 13, where he was enrolled at St. Edward’s School in Oxford on a music scholarship. This is where he met MacFarlane, who was also raised in the US, as well as Irwin-Singer and Seaward. The group was still in school when it released its debut EP, Leaflings, in 2012.

After the release of its EP, Glass toured around England playing some small clubs and would later release its self-titled EP in 2013. Glass Animals conveyed the band’s eccentric style of music, including its catchy mannerisms.

Glass Animals is heavily influenced by both psychedelic music and the study of biology, and both of these concepts are present throughout its albums. Their self-titled EP contains the track “Psylla,” which is a reference to a sap-sucking insect. The track also contains psychedelic elements like heavy reverb, delay, and breathy vocals. The song “Woozy” is also presented on the EP, which has a trip-hop vibe as well as including a guest appearance by Jean Deaux, who raps a verse in the song.

The band soon caught the attention of high-profile producer Paul Epworth, who has worked with such artists such as Adele, Coldplay, Paul McCartney, and Bruno Mars. Epworth signed the band to his label Wolf Tone. With his support, Glass Animals released its debut album, Zaba, which was highly influenced by William Steig’s children’s book The Zabajaba Jungle.

The songs on Zaba feature tribal drum patterns as well as sounds of nature, which were captured by lead singer David Bayley recording ambient sounds in outdoor settings. Critics have praised Zaba for its unique blend of electronica and R&B music that is presented in a minimalistic way. Critics have also commented that the album resembles the sounds of Jamie xx and Flying Lotus. The album did extremely well on the Australian music charts and contained the singles “Black Mambo,” “Gooey,” “Pools,” and “Hazey.”

In 2014 and 2015 the band made major moves, performing “Gooey” on both The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Seth Meyers. It toured both hemispheres of the globe and performed over 130 concerts in 2015, including sold-out performances at The Wiltern in Los Angeles and Terminal 5 in New York City. In the midst of this, they also released a collaboration called “Lose Control” with rapper Joey Bada$$.

The next year was no less eventful. In May, Glass Animals dropped the single “Life Itself” in anticipation of its upcoming second full-length album, How to Be a Human Being. The single rose to number 14 on the US Billboard Alternative Song chart and spent half a year on Sirius XM’s Alt-18 chart. The accompanying music video came out in June 2016. The second single, “Youth,” was released on July 25. It also saw immediate success and made it into the FIFA 17 by EA Sports. “Season 2 Episode 3,” the third single, came out on August 22, four days before the album came out.

The album How to Be a Human Being was inspired by people Bayley met while on tour. Each song explored a different person’s life, resulting in fascinating insights into other people’s experiences. For instance, “Season 2 Episode 3” told the story of a woman who “spends her entire time watching TV, lounging around, not doing anything, being high, eating mayonnaise from a jar.”

In 2018, while preparing for yet another tour, drummer Joe Seaward was hit by a truck during a bike ride in Dublin. Facing serious injuries, he and the band decided to cancel the rest of 2018’s tour dates.

Two singles for its next album came out in November 2019 and February 2020: “Tokyo Drifting” (with Denzel Curry) and “Your Love (Déjà Vu).” The next single, “Dreamland,” came out in May 2020 and was accompanied by an official announcement of the upcoming album’s release on July 10.

“Dreamland” came out during Seaward’s long hospitalization after his accident. While Bayley was sitting by his bedside, he began to write down memories, which turned into a nostalgic album, also called Dreamland. It contained material related to Bayley’s childhood and other pivotal moments throughout his life.

Though Dreamland was scheduled for release in July 2020, in late June, the band delayed its release to “keep focus on the Black Lives Matter movement and the discussions taking place around racism and police brutality around the world.” Glass Animals instead released it in August. The band also launched a website where fans could interact with the album — downloading samples of the songs, inspecting artwork, and learning more about the album’s content. Bayley explained that the goal was “to make something that was incredibly honest and incredibly us.” Dreamland debuted at number two in the UK Albums Chart.

In January 2021, “Heat Waves” hit the number one spot on Australia’s Triple J Hottest 100 of 2020. “Tangerine” and “Your Love (Déjà Vu)” also made the chart. Other singles from the album continued to climb the charts well into 2022.

Live reviews

Proudly touting one of the year's strongest debut records, Oxford's Glass Animals are on course to be an unrivalled quartet of dominating figures in the immediate future. Their first LP, ZABA, is a gorgeous commingling of syrupy gloop-splattered synths, Yellow Fever funk guitar, alt-J-esque falsetto harmonies and rampant beats that sound like a jungle stampede. They spin an addictive and hugely unique style of music, and though it's achingly familiar, there's never any anchoring point – a rare treat in today's sonic landscape. There's a delirious opiate aura as their blur the borders of R&B, rock, pop, electronica and soul, and don't be surprised if you're sucked into an anachronistic tornado, and promptly blurted into a surreal(er) land of Oz.

It's an ambitious set of tracks to transfer into live scenarios, but, even in their relatively early days, they've fine-tuned and sharpened an array of sandblasted efforts. Their shows are littered with fan favourites: “Gooey”, “Cocoa Hooves” (sans slugs), “Flip”, “Walla Walla” and a delightfully warped cover of Kanye West's “Love Lockdown”, so expect the immaculately-coiffed lads to dazzle on every front. Even if you're not familiar with the band, it's well worth taking a gamble and watching them live; as much as it's an impressive performance, it's an experience that'll melt the innards of your cranium.

Report as inappropriate

Wow! What a talented and likable group of guys who put on one of the best shows I've seen in awhile. Having only released two albums so far, Glass Animals certainly have to put some lesser-known songs into their setlist. But here's the thing: they truly don't have a bad song. Each track has a different sound and a different story to tell. The show started with the jumpy and rhythmic "Life Itself," but was immediately followed by the deliciously slow and smooth jams "Black Mambo" and "Hazey." Other standouts included "Poplar St," a slow burn with a killer guitar line, "Season 2 Episode 3," a techno-infused song complete with video game noises and quirky lyrics ("My girl eats mayonnaise/From a jar when she's gettin' blazed), and "Youth," a cheerful crowd-pleaser. Of course, "Gooey," the lads' most famous hit, brought the house down and a solid encore finished off the show. I think I was most impressed with the performance aspect of the concert. The strobe lights and the energy of the band really made the most of the NorVa's small space. And, oh yeah, a giant pineapple disco ball doesn't hurt.

Been wanting to watch this band since their inception. Finally got the perfect opportunity with the grand opening of the roxy, a new venue right in front of the brand new braves stadium!

their act is visceral and mind bending at times. They started out strong with their latest single with their latest single "life itself". This showed how skillful they've become with their live act and how they've developed over time. One of the coolest set features was how in sync the lighting effects were with the act especially the light reflections that came from a huge pineapple disco ball that hung above the stage.

Highlight of the show was undoubtedly their ability to break off into solos and improve each song. Usually when I think of glass animals I think calm and soothing sounds but this show was the opposite. Just imagine their songs on steroids. Amazing show to say the least and I can not wait to watch they live again!

If you're reading this, you're likely already a fan of their music. Well after seeing them live, I'm a bigger fan. The lead singer was so enthusiastic and looked like he was having a blast and when the crowd showed the band love, he was humble and endearing and played even harder. His energy was infectious and the whole room just seemed really stoked to be there as was I. They are really fun and if I had any complaint, it was that they didn't play long enough. Also, might I add that it is SO refreshing to hear an indie band PLAY INSTRUMENTS and not just a keyboard synth while acting like it was re-inventing the wheel. I like those bands too but what a breath of fresh air. Instruments. And real drums. Every one of them was just fantastic. I am so glad I got to experience this and will again the next chance I get.

So this is a band I've been into for a while now and yet to see. Since hearing this record earlier this year when it came out, I've definitely been wanting to see them live, and it was definitely worth the wait. We were greeted by the sight of a veritable forest of large potted plants around the stage, creating a surreal yet playful atmosphere, hinting at the kind of people these guys are, who created one of the most intriguing albums to come out this year. From the minute they hit the stage they had the entire audience enthralled. Running through most of the tracks off their first full length album "Zaba" with enthusiasm and energy, standout tracks "Gooey" and "Hazey" and the tribal "Wyrd" got the crowd moving! They definitely sounded like a band that are destined for great things. Definitely ones to watch!

It was great, it started with super chill band from Colombia that were super cool and had some really unique influences. But then shit hit the fan. Another band came out... Little Dragon. A Swedish band that would sound good if they just turned off the singers mic and took it easy on the bass. The singer couldn't sing and it felt like their set would never end. It was weird and you couldn't understand a word she said. But enough about that malarky. Glass Animals my god it was fantastic. Every song was so good, they changed tempo or put in solos to the songs and it was so enjoyable. The lights where perfect and fit the songs lyrics so well. I honestly can not say enough good things about the show. 10/10 would see Glass Animals again

these guys BROUGHT IT. it was not a great night weather-wise - torrential downpour, flash flooding, and an hour's delay after they had only played a few songs. but more than half the crowd at red rocks stuck it out through the very damp night. once they took the stage again they were ready to rock - very high energy, dave was clearly having a blast. he told the crowd that we had a "british music festival" vibe, and i took it as a compliment. great set list, mostly from "how to be a human being," but a few from "zaba" thrown into the mix. would definitely love to see these guys perform again.

Seeing Glass Animals live is a truly amazing experience. There was such a relaxed atmosphere at their show as each song blended with another. Their music is so infectious and that showed by the audience's reaction, with most of the room swaying to frontman Dave's vocals and the dripping beats that makes their music so unique. Dave performed without shoes, in wooly socks, so that gives you an idea of how relaxed the band is! I will definitely be wanting to see them again in 2016, eagerly anticipating their 2nd album!

Glass Animals @ Gorilla, Manchester

Thursday 5th March 2015

I go to a lot of small venue shoes. I lived in NYC for 8 years and went to a TON of shows as well as travel in the summer for gigs. I had never seen Glass Animals before last night and was STUNNED.

Blown. Away.

They were amazing. The energy of the crowd who knew all the lyrics helped but they were just incredible. The show was short because they only have 1 full length album but I will JUMP at the opportunity to see these guys again. Thank you for not only producing great music but putting on an entertaining live show.

The Glass Animals was the headline band for Buzz Under the Stars Night 1. The show was incredibly put together with dazzling lights, perfect stage presence and, of course, amazing music. Dave Bayley looked as if he loved what he was doing the entire show; interacting with the audience, dancing, introducing songs and his band members. The audience itself was enthralled with the entire show from start to finish. It was an all around spiritual experience and I would undoubtedly recommend the Glass Animals for years to come.

Glass Animals at Budweiser Stage

Budweiser stage, toronto, ontario, glass animals, budweiser stage, tickets from $56.

The British powerhouse, indie rock-pop band, responsible for such hits like "Gooey", and, “Heat Waves,” Glass Animals, comes to the Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Ontario on Tuesday, August 20th 2024 with special guest and opening band, Kevin Abstract. Click that "Get Tickets" button to your right, right now.

“Hello humans of earth! how r u? we have missed playing for u v much. we can’t wait to play u the new music…i think this album will be exceptionally fun live,” the plucky band announced on socials.

This is the great "Tour of Earth 2024," and it will be like a Death Star to Alderaan, and absolutely blow you away! Glass Animals have finally, after 4 long years, brought out an answer to 2020s, Dreamland, and the wildly popular viral track “Heat Waves.” I Love You So F***ing Much, no, thats the album name, and it features the new single, “Creatures in Heaven,” and you can catch it down below in a video filled with weird aliens and other psychedelic entities.

Glass Animals Tickets from $56

The “Tour of Earth” comes to support the bands' upcoming album, “I Love You So F****** Much,” due out on July 19. The album is led by the dreamy single, “Creatures In Heaven,” which keeps with the band’s signature sound and style, heavy with early 00s R&B and hip-hop-infusions, electro-pop and synth heavy, with lead singer and songwriter's Dave Bayley’s high tenor voice crooning all over it.

For the album's title, “I love you so f***ing much, I LOVE YOU SO F***ING MUCH, I love you SO f***ing MUCH, I love you so F***ING much, I LOVE you so f***ing MUCH. These words take on a different meaning every time you say them. The universe may make us feel overwhelmingly small, but we have this human connection that is far vaster and more mysterious. Love comes in an infinite number of forms and shapes and sizes. It is so complex, and so powerful, that even witnessing the tiniest instance of it can change your life forever.” Bayley explained.

Glass Animals includes guitarist Drew MacFarlane, bassist Edmund Irwin-Singer, and drummer Joe Seaward along with the aforementioned lead singer, Dave Bayley. 2020 saw the band release their biggest album to date, Dreamworld. It featured the sleeper success story, “Heat Waves,” which took two years, but eventually climbed to the number 1 spot on charts here in America, Australia and the bands' home of the U.K.

Kevin Abstract, former founding member of the hip-hop boy band Brockhampton, released his fourth solo project last year. The Nirvana grunge rock inspired album, Blanket, which he described as, "like, a Sunny Day Real Estate, Nirvana, Modest Mouse type of record" that "hit like a rap album." While the concept is a little unusual, the album still faired reasonably. Abstract has reportedly already begun working on a new project.
