Bow Wow Wow
Get ready to relive the wild, untamed energy of one of the most electrifying acts to emerge from the early 1980s. Bow Wow Wow, the legendary new wave and post-punk band famed for their tribal rhythms, sun-soaked rebel spirit, and infectious hits like 'I Want Candy,' are hitting stages across California for a run of unmissable live shows throughout 2026. Whether you caught them the first time around or are discovering their infectious sound for the first time, these performances promise to be a thrilling celebration of an era that changed music forever.
The tour spans some of Southern California's most beloved venues, kicking off at the Constellation Room at The Observatory in Santa Ana on May 11, before heading to the legendary Whisky A Go Go on the Sunset Strip on June 26. Music fans in San Diego can catch a special co-bill with Missing Persons at the iconic Belly Up Tavern on June 28 — a can't-miss double dose of 80s nostalgia. The tour wraps up at The Holding Company in San Diego on October 3, offering one final chance to experience the magic.
Each show promises an atmosphere bursting with raw, danceable energy — expect pounding Burundi-inspired drum beats, catchy guitar hooks, and an undeniable sense of freedom and fun that defined the Bow Wow Wow sound. These are intimate venue experiences where every seat puts you close to the action, so come ready to sing, dance, and surrender to the spirit of the 80s at its most gloriously untamed.
