No need to be stuck “Living In The Past,” Jethro Tull fans.
For the first time since 2011, the classic rockers are in the U.S. as part of their ongoing ‘Seven Decades Tour.’
At each and every show, they’ll “produce one song from each of the seven decades…to keep the set list varied so the songs don’t fall in the same tempo or key or subject material.” lead singer Ian Anderson told USA Today.
As of now, the jazzy icons have 10 concerts remaining on their 2023 tour schedule.
That includes a trio of gigs in New York.
First up, the “Aqualung” group is scheduled to hit New York City’s Beacon Theatre on Nov. 1.
After that, Jethro Tull is scheduled to end their 2023 North American run with stops at Port Chester’s Capitol Theatre on Nov. 2 and Albany’s Palace Theatre on Nov. 4.

As of now, seats are available for all remaining shows.
At the time of publication, we found tickets going for as low as $49 before fees on Vivid Seats.

Jethro Tull new music
In 2022, Jethro Tull released “The Zealot Gene,” their first official record since 2003’s “The Jethro Tull Christmas Album.”
And this year, they did it again.
“RökFlöte,” the band’s 23rd studio album dropped in April.
For the record, we can’t stop listening to the hypnotic “Allfather.”
