Lawrence will throw its first-ever festival, dubbed Staycation, at Brooklyn Steel in the band’s native New York City this fall. Set to occur November 3rd–5th, these concerts will serve as the group’s only remaining headlining dates for 2022. The festival announcement came days after siblings Gracie and Clyde Lawrence and their band performed their last hometown show at the City Parks SummerStage in Central Park on Thursday with MisterWives.
Staycation will feature three headlining sets from Lawrence with different themes, setlists, openers, and special guests each night. Though the band has not announced any other artists, Lawrence promises six different opening acts across the three nights. Staycation will also mark the group’s first three-night headlining run at any venue. Three-night and single-day Staycation tickets are on sale here with VIP options also available.
Prior to Staycation, Lawrence still has a number of dates on the books including festival sets at The Werk Out, Oceans Calling, and Suwannee Hulaween. The band will also provide support for Goose at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on August 21st, and perform at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland (8/26) and Nickel Plate District Amphitheater in Fishers, IN (8/27). Visit the band’s website for tickets and a full list of tour dates.
Last week saw Lawrence wrap its North American Sounds of Summer Tour with MisterWives and Winnetka Bowling League with a penultimate homecoming show as part of the SummerStage concert series. The predictably high-energy Lawrence show featured a healthy smattering of the group’s expanding catalog including favorites “Freckles”, “The Heartburn Song”, “Do You Wanna Do Nothing With Me?”, and more. The group also squeezed in a number of covers including Wings‘ “Live and Let Die”, *NSYNC‘s “It’s Gonna Be Me”, and an encore blowout of Whitney Houston‘s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)” with MisterWives.
