Deftones will be spending the spring on the road with Knocked Loose and Julie for a run of outdoor shows, mostly in amphitheaters around North America. The dates run from May 5 though June 20 when they wrap in Toronto.
Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. local time on Nov. 19. Fans can sign up for artist presales through Sunday to qualify for early access tickets on Tuesday.
Last weekend, the band headlined its own festival, Día de los Deftones, in San Diego. Their set list leaned heavily on songs from Diamond Eyes and last year’s Private Music. Most notable for fans was a rare performance of “Melanie,” a song that was originally intended to come out on the band’s vaulted Eros record. They had not performed it live since 2008.Converge, Jehnny Beth, AFI, and the Neighbourhood, among others, also performed at the event. Deftones reported a sold-out attendance of more than 40,000 fans at the event, which was in its seventh year.
Rolling Stone dubbed Private Music the best metal album of the year in 2025. “The best thing about Private Music, the band’s 10th LP, is how it upholds Deftones’ core aesthetic — a juxtaposition of grinding alt-metal riffage and deep, sensuous yearning that recalls their turn-of-the-millennium landmark White Pony — while somehow sounding fresh,” the magazine said. “Private Music showed that Deftones are still writing riveting new chapters.”
