Les Claypool Announces 2026 Tour with Primus, Claypool Lennon Delirium, and Frog Brigade

1 month ago 10



Les Claypool is pulling triple duty on an upcoming US tour, bringing his bands Primus, Claypool Lennon Delirium with Sean Ono Lennon, and Claypool’s Fearless Flying Frog Brigade on the road for one massive trek.

Dubbed “Claypool Gold,” the tour will feature all three bands sharing the stage each night. The shows will be fluid, with rotating setlists, changing special guests, and plenty of jam-forward detours.

The tour will kick off with a performance in Reno on May 20th, followed by dates in cities like Bend, Salt Lake City, Kansas City, St. Louis, Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Asbury Park, Charlotte, Atlanta, Austin, Phoenix, San Diego, and many more. The “Claypool Gold” run ends on July 4th with a show in Napa, California; see the full list of tour dates below.

Tickets for “Claypool Gold 2026” will first be available via an artist pre-sale running on Wednesday, January 21st at 10:00 a.m. local time; fans can sign up for pre-sale access to their desired show date(s) on Claypool’s official website, where VIP packages are also available. Tickets will go on sale for the general public on Friday, January 23rd at 10:00 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster.

To celebrate the upcoming tour, Claypool Lennon Delirium have revealed the new song “WAP (What a Predicament).” Taking a decidedly psychedelic approach, the song blooms and unfolds over a modest trot, fuzzy guitars, Lennon’s passionate vocals, and Claypool’s groovy bassline. Throughout, Lennon bemoans the state of the world, the rise of AI, and the insanity of the internet: “I’m not sure if history repeats but I’m certain that it rhymes,” he sings. Listen to “WAP (What a Predicament)” below.
