Sleater-Kinney and Liz Phair announce “The Flannel and the Fury” tour

Sleater-Kinney and Liz Phair have announced a co-headlining tour. The two artists, who each rose to prominence during the heyday of alt-rock in the 1990s, are calling their tour “The Flannel and the Fury.” Check out the dates below.

“The Flannel and The Fury is a nod to 1990s alt-rock culture and the female-fronted bands who staked their claim to center stage in a male-dominated music industry,” Phair said in a statement. “Sleater-Kinney and I both cut our teeth in the early Riot Girl scene. It’s been a dream of mine ever since to bring our music and our fans together for one night of reckless hope and musical splendor. We’ll see you there!”

“For those of us who listened to ‘Exile in Guyville’ on repeat in 1993, Liz Phair has always been a leader and a truth-sayer for the female experience,” add Sleater-Kinney’s Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker. “She’s a legend and a stone cold classic; what a thrill to share the stage with one of our biggest inspirations – we can’t wait to tear it up with her. See you soon!”

Sleater-Kinney’s Dig Me Out and Liz Phair’s Exile in Guyville are both featured on our list of 91 Essential Alternative Rock Albums of the ’90s.
