by Madonna

Rob Thomas is hitting the road this summer, kicking off his first solo tour since 2019. The “All Night Days Tour” launches on August 1 in Atlanta and spans 25 cities across the United States. In a heartwarming twist, Thomas’s son, Mason, will join him on stage as the lead guitarist for the entire tour.

Speaking to USA Today, Thomas explained his timing: “Next year will be the 30th anniversary of Matchbox Twenty so I thought, if I don’t get out there now and play solo, I’ll miss that window.”
