The post Thrice to Celebrate The Artist in the Ambulance with 20th Anniversary Tour appeared first on Consequence.

Thrice’s seminal third album, The Artist in the Ambulance, turns 20 this year. In celebration, the post-hardcore band is hitting the road on a North American anniversary tour that will see them performing the LP from front to back, with support from Holy Fawn.

The outing kicks off May 18th in San Diego and runs through a June 23rd show in Anaheim, California. A Live Nation pre-sale begins Thursday (February 2nd) at noon local time using the code CHORUS via Ticketmaster, with general tickets available beginning Friday. Fans can also pick up tickets via StubHub.

In addition to the touring news, Thrice have just released a re-recording of The Artist in the Ambulance featuring a bevy of special guests, including Andy Hull of Manchester Orchestra, Ryan Osterman of Holy Fawn, Chuck Ragan of Hot Water Music, Sam Carter of Architects, Mike Minnick of Curl Up and Die, and Brian McTernan, who produced the original record.

Lead singer Dustin Kensrue stated, “The question has to be asked: Why would we re-record a 20 year old album, let alone one that is widely beloved and arguably our most well-known. I think the core of the answer is that it simply sounded fun and we were curious.”

He added, “We know that playing the revisionist is a dangerous game, so we were always a little uneasy about trying to go back and mess with something that people loved, people who had none of the hangups about the record that we did. But, since we decided to do this anyway, we tried to let that wariness guide us in how we approached the record, and in the end we decided to make very minimal structural changes.”

The Artist in the Ambulance served as Thrice’s breakthrough album, hitting No. 16 on the Billboard 200 chart, and impacting alt-rock radio with the singles “All That’s Left” and “Stare at the Sun.”
