Tom Morello has made the unusual decision to reschedule his own upcoming spring concerts so he can join Bruce Springsteen‘s 2026 U.S. tour. Morello is only playing select shows. See a complete list of the Springsteen tour’s dates, cities and venues below.
“I have a deep love and respect for all my friends, fans and comrades, and I’m sorry that I must reschedule some of my May solo shows,” Morello said in an official statement. “I promise that we will find a way to be together for these shows, in these towns, very soon.”
Springsteen’s Land of Hopes and Dreams Tour begins in March in Minneapolis, following his recent appearance at Morello’s Defend Minnesota! benefit concert. Proceeds went to families recently impacted by federal immigration enforcement. They performed Springsteen’s new protest song, “Streets of Minneapolis.”
Morello first appeared onstage with Springsteen in 2008, when he made a pair of guest appearances in Anaheim. Morello then joined Springsteen during the 2009 induction ceremony for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame before he temporarily filled in for E Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt in 2013.
Why Did Tom Morello Postpone His 2026 Solo Tour?
Morello has worked with Springsteen in the studio, as well. He appeared on two tracks from 2012’s Wrecking Ball and eight of the 11 songs from 2014’s High Hopes. Morello took part in the subsequent E Street Band tour, then guested during a stop on 2016’s River Tour at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
“After Bruce joined me last month in Minneapolis for our Defend Minnesota! charity concert, I was reminded how important our platform is,” Morello said, “and how crucial the resistance work is that our music can do together at this dangerous historical juncture.”

Springsteen announced the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour earlier this month. So far, there are 20 confirmed dates, with the final stop set for late May in Washington, D.C. He’s playing multiple concerts at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, and at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
“Together, Bruce, the E Street Band, and I are going to turn a spotlight on the current threats to democracy and human rights happening all around us on the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour in the spirit of freedom, justice and rock ‘n’ roll,” Morello added.
