Veteran hard rock titans Clutch and Corrosion of Conformity are joining forces for a massive North American tour in 2026, promising a thunderous celebration of heavy riffs, groove-laden rock, and decades of underground credibility. The co-headlining run is set to be one of the most anticipated rock tours of the spring, bringing together two bands whose legacies are deeply rooted in authenticity, power, and loyal fanbases.
The tour officially launches on April 9, 2026, in Sayreville, New Jersey, and will run through May 3 in Asheville, North Carolina. Over the course of nearly a month, the trek will crisscross the country, hitting key markets across the Midwest, Southwest, and Southeast, while also stretching as far west as Reno, Nevada. From intimate theaters to renowned rock venues, the route is designed to deliver an up-close and uncompromising live experience for fans old and new.
Adding to the excitement, Corrosion of Conformity has confirmed that 2026 will be a major year for the band. In a statement shared on Facebook, the group addressed their fans directly: “To all the free thinkers and beer drinkers! It’s gonna be a busy 2026 for us all. The new album is coming your way and we can’t wait to get this one out there!! In addition to a string of headline dates and festivals, we are pleased to announce this run of gigs with our good buddies in Clutch. Gonna be a blast as always! See ya on the horizon. Stay Heavy.”
That announcement alone has fueled anticipation, as fans can expect to hear not only classic Corrosion of Conformity material, but also new songs performed live ahead of the upcoming album’s release.
Clutch, meanwhile, continue to prove why they are one of the most respected live bands in modern rock. With frontman Neil Fallon leading the charge, the band’s blend of stoner rock, blues, and metallic swagger has remained consistently powerful for over three decades. Recent interviews and performances highlight a band that is still creatively energized, making this co-headlining tour an ideal meeting point for two veteran acts operating at full strength.
The full list of tour dates includes stops in Worcester, Rochester, Kansas City, Boise, Albuquerque, San Antonio, Pensacola, Chattanooga, and many more, ensuring wide access for fans across the country. Each night is expected to deliver a heavy, riff-driven setlist packed with fan favorites, deep cuts, and surprises.
With new music on the horizon, longtime camaraderie between the bands, and a carefully mapped-out route across the U.S., the Clutch and Corrosion of Conformity 2026 tour stands out as a must-see event for hard rock and metal fans. Tickets are expected to move quickly, so those looking to be part of this loud and unforgettable spring run should act fast and prepare to stay heavy.
