Whitney are celebrating the 10th anniversary of their beloved 2016 debut album Light Upon the Lake with a 2027 North American tour, where they’ll perform the album in full each night alongside fan-favorite tracks from their discography.
The duo will kick off their “Light Upon the Lake 10th Anniversary Tour” with a set at Kilby Block Party on May 14th, followed by a headlining show in Seattle on May 17th. The tour rolls on with concerts in Portland, Vancouver, San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, Boston, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Washington D.C., Woodstock, Pittsburgh, and Toronto. The run wraps with a pair of shows in their native Chicago and a concluding show in Minneapolis on June 27th. Tyler Ballgame will provide support throughout the run. See their full list of tour dates below.
“ Light Upon The Lake came out 10 years ago,” the band said in a statement. “10 years ago our community in Chicago was a beaming, nurturing, sometimes messy picture of young adulthood. Our friends provided couches and floors when we desperately needed them. Critical ears and valuable feedback when we were struggling to write throughout winter 2015. Encouragement (and residual panic) as we played our first few live shows around the city, and unwavering support as that live show eventually took us away for months at a time.”
“It’s cliche but there was a chosen family that quite literally stepped in and kept us afloat and clearheaded throughout the journey of writing LUTL and I think that’s what I’m bound to remember another 10 or 20 years from now. Thank you to anyone and everyone whose lives have been touched by this record in the last decade. We’ll see you soon <3.”
Whitney revealed a 10th anniversary reissue of Light Upon the Lake earlier this year; the new edition features unreleased demos, alternative versions, and covers. The band’s last album was 2025’s Small Talk .
