The Pixies are finally coming back to Israel, after canceling concerts twice in the past two years, and will perform July 11 at Expo Tel Aviv.
All tickets sold for the original 2020 concert will be honored for this long-awaited show, now with the addition of Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains, onstage with his solo show. Tickets are available for the joint Pixies-Cantrell show.
Cantrell’s new album, “Brighten,” his first solo work in 20 years, was released in 2021 to enthusiastic reviews.
Cantrell will also perform on July 10 with his band at Barby Tel Aviv.
The Pixies first performed in Israel at Bloomfield Stadium in 2014, selling out that concert as well as two shows in 2017 in Caesarea.
Cantrell has also played Israel before, in 2018 with Seattle band Alice in Chains, his grunge and heavy metal bandmates of the last 34 years.
