THE DREAM SYNDICATE
with special guests
ELF POWER
Tuesday September 29, 2026
@ 40 Watt Club
Doors open @ 7pm, Show @ 8pm
Under 18 ok with parent/guardian
Tickets are $20 advance (+tax/fees), $25 day of show
Limited # of four-top tables available

The Dream Syndicate will be performing their classic and mercurial 2nd album Medicine Show on tour in the US and Europe beginning in September and carrying through March of next year. The tour will time with a 4CD box set and LP release of the album on the band’s own Down There label, exclusively distributed by Fire Records.

It will be the first time the band has ever performed Medicine Show in its entirety and comes fresh on the heels of a similar and successful tour for The Days of Wine and Roses in 2022.

Each night will begin with a revolving set of newer material, drawn from the four reunion albums the band has made since 2017 and then resume after a short break with Medicine Show, an album that was heralded as one of the 40 best albums of the rock and roll era by the London Guardian and which has been out of print for several decades.

The reissue comes on the heels of a lengthy legal battle that ended with the band winning the rights to the album which they’ll be signing every evening at the merch table after the show.

The Dream Syndicate burst onto the LA scene at the beginning of 1982 as the leaders of the Paisley Underground movement and eventually as leading lights of the American Indie scene that was brewing in the wake of the punk and post-punk scenes. Four popular albums and dozens of tours followed before The Dream Syndicate disbanded in 1988 before reuniting in 2012. The core band of Steve Wynn, Dennis Duck and Mark Walton from the first incarnation was joined by Steve Wynn & the Miracle 3 guitarist Jason Victor and eventually Green on Red keyboardist Chris Cacavas, the lineup that endures to this day.
