Collective Soul and +LIVE+ have announced their 2025 co-headlining Summer Unity Tour, which will include a stop at Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh on July 31, Darien Lake Ampitheater on July 26, and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts on August 2.
This highly anticipated tour, produced by Live Nation, marks the first time these two bands have toured together in 17 years. It promises to be a night full of nostalgia and musicianship. Additionally, special guests Our Lady Peace and Gremlin James Rue will add even more excitement to this summer spectacle.
+LIVE+ rose to fame with their chart-topping albums Throwing Copper and Secret Samadhi. They solidified their place in rock history with hits like “Lightning Crashes” and “I Alone.” Decades later, the band remains a powerhouse, drawing in audiences worldwide with their live performances.
Ed Kowalczyk expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming tour, stating, “+LIVE+ is thrilled to be joining forces with the amazing Collective Soul! The great vibes between our two bands on and offstage is something we have both enjoyed for years, and here we come in 2025! This will be a very special night of music for all of the fans; I know everyone is gonna get rocked and uplifted right along with us…come on out!”
Celebrating 30 years in rock, Collective Soul continues to evolve with their 12th studio album, HERE TO ETERNITY. Known for timeless hits like “Shine,” “December,” and “The World I Know,” the band has sold millions of albums and delivered eight #1 hits. With performances at Woodstock ‘94 and ‘99, they continue to thrive, fusing iconic anthems with new music and unstoppable energy.
Ed Roland of Collective Souls stated, “It was August 1994, and we, Collective Soul, were on our way to Woodstock. As our van pulled up to the grounds, another one pulled up beside us and out jumped the band +LIVE+. We became immediate friends, exchanging guitar picks with each other as soon as we met. Since that day, the Ed and Ed show has been nothing but pure, genuine friendship, and rock and roll. We’re excited that 31 years later, we still not only enjoy each other’s company, but enjoy playing music. It’s going to be a fun summer sharing it with fans, friends and +LIVE+.”
New York fans will have multiple chances to catch the Summer Unity Tour, with Collective Soul and +LIVE+ making stops at three iconic venues across the state. The tour hits Darien Lake Amphitheater on July 26, bringing their signature rock energy to Western New York. Just days later, they’ll take the stage at Northwell at Jones Beach Theater on July 31. Finally, on August 2, the bands will perform at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts. Each stop promises an unforgettable night of live music, nostalgia, and high-energy performances.
