Todd Rundgren just announced he’s going to hit theaters and music halls all over North America on his summer 2026 ‘Damned If I Do Tour’ this June and July.

At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one show was $62 including fees on StubHub.
Tickets start at $115 including fees for his New York gigs.
Prior to the tour announcement, the classic rocker dropped a new single with The Call. Titled “The Walls Came Down,” the track harkens back to ’80s new wave of all things.
While we’re not sure whether or not that upbeat tune will make his live show, Set List FM reports he plays the hits like “Hello, It’s Me” and “I Saw The Light” at his live shows along with deep cuts from his time with Utopia and recently-released, sonically-diverse 2022 record “Space Force.”
“Where else can you hear R&B, jazz, soul, acapella, rap, rock, and a sea shanty all in the same night and from the same performer?” Americana Highways asked after a July 2025 concert in Albany.
“…on the way out, some fans described the show as ‘magical,’ ‘outstanding,’ and ‘impressive. The 77-year-old Rundgren certainly proved he still can produce and perform at a professional level, displaying both his vigorous vocal abilities and his guitar playing prowess.”

In October ’22, Rundgren called upon some of his most musically gifted friends to create an all-over-the-map feast for the ears.
“Space Force,” comprised of 12 tracks, features big names like Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo, The Roots, Sparks, Steve Vai, and Cheap Trick’s Rick Nielsen among others to give each song a distinct flavor.
For us, the retro reggae “Down With The Ship” and the operatic pop experiment “Your Fandango” are our favorites; however, every listener will likely find a cut that resonates most with them.
To find the recent Rundgren that hits hardest for you, you can listen to the exquisitely-produced yet free-form “Space Force” here.
Outside of the album, he’s also released unique covers of The Rolling Stones’ “I Am Waiting,” King Crimson’s “21st Century Schizoid Man” and contributed to NARCY and JAi ELECTRONICA’s Hip-Hop jam “American Karma.”
Most recently, the collaborated with The Call on “The Walls Came Down,” a clap-your-hands, stomp-your-feet, feel-good anthem that sounds straight out of the ’80s, retro-futurist new wave movement. Prepare to shimmy.
Many of the greatest acts from the Nixon, Ford, and Carter eras are still pounding the pavement this year.
Here are just five you won’t want to miss live these next few months.
