The Wallflowers have announced a special 2026 U.S. and European tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of Bringing Down the Horse. For the first time, the band will perform the album in full, along with a front-to-back set of Long After Dark by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, creating a unique double-album live experience.

Frontman Jakob Dylan said the band wanted to mark the milestone in a meaningful way, choosing what fans consider their most beloved record while also honoring one of their favorite Tom Petty albums. Originally released in 1996, Bringing Down the Horse sold over four million copies and produced hits like “One Headlight” and “6th Avenue Heartache,” earning two wins at the Grammy Awards.

The tour also reflects Dylan’s long-standing connection to Tom Petty, who invited him to induct him into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. The band continues to build on its legacy with releases like 2021’s Exit Wounds, which drew strong critical praise.
