The War On Drugs will return next month for the rock band’s first public performances in a year when they regroup to host their third annual “DRUGCEMBER TO REMEMBER” benefit concerts at the end of December.

The two nights of music will take place in Philadelphia, PA on December 29th and 30th, although details of the exact locations weren’t included with the band’s announcement on Wednesday. Proceeds from both concerts will go to benefit The Fund for the School District of Philadelphia. The band noted with the announcement that they successfully raised $35,000 for the same cause at last year’s performances.
The War On Drugs have taken all of 2019 off from performing, as the band spent much of 2018 on the road in continued promotion behind 2017’s A Deeper Understanding. The 2017 studio album marked another successful release from primary songwriter/singer/guitarist Adam Granduciel, as it reached the top 10 on Billboard 200 Chart in the United States, a notable rise from 2014’s Lost in the Dream, which peaked at No. 26.
As of Wednesday, the band has no performances scheduled for 2020, but fans should stay on the lookout for possible announcements coming closer to the end of the year.
Tickets for the two “DRUGCEMBER TO REMEMBER” shows will be available only via an exclusive ticket request confirmation process, which is now open for submission here.
