Bay Area/LA rockers Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (BRMC) are hitting the road for a North American tourcelebrating the 20th anniversary of their 2005 album, Howl. The 25-date tour, the band’s first headlining run in five years, kicks off September 25, 2025, in Santa Ana, CA, and crisscrosses the country before wrapping up with a hometown show at The Warfield in San Francisco on October 25.

In honor of Howl—hailed as one of their most critically acclaimed releases—BRMC will perform tracks from the album alongside fan favorites from their deep catalog.

Adding to the celebration, the band will release a deluxe vinyl edition of Howl this fall, featuring four LPs packed with previously unreleased tracks from the 2005 recording sessions.

NME once described Howl as “an homage to American folk music, from the deep-fried Southern gothic feel of opener ‘Shuffle’ to the head-rushing closer ‘The Line.’”

To which BRMC founder Robert Levon Been quipped: “What the fuck does NME know about American folk music?”
