The stage at the new Brooklyn Steel venue is set for Vulfpeck, as the funky group will return to Brooklyn for two nights on September 8th and 9th. Though Vulfpeck has not formally announced the shows, they have surfaced on the Brooklyn Steel website with tickets going on sale this Friday, January 13th.
Vulfpeck’s last trip to Brooklyn included a multi-night run at the famed Brooklyn Bowl, but with Vulfpeck’s ever-growing fanbase, it would make sense for the band to choose a larger venue for their return. Brooklyn Steel is operated by Bowery Presents, and will open this April with a three night run by The Decemberists. Brooklyn Steel can hold 1,800, while the Bowl has a more intimate capacity of 600.
Before these September shows, Vulfpeck will be touring heavily (for their standards) in 2017. They have a tour scheduled through the month of May into June, which includes a set opening for Trey Anastasio Band at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as performances in St. Paul, Chicago, Toronto, Ann Arbor, Portland OR, Los Angeles, Santa Ana, and San Francisco. With no dates on the East Coast scheduled, we’re certainly hopeful that these two Brooklyn shows are indicative of larger plans for the band.
