The Breeders Tour 2014
The 2014 tour by American alternative rock group the Breeders comprised a series of thirteen concerts in central and western United States in September 2014. The Breeders' line-up for their successful 1993 album ''Last Splash'' consisted of Josephine Wiggs, Jim Macpherson, Kim Deal, and Kelley Deal; however, Wiggs and Macpherson were not in the band for the group's next albums, ''Title TK'' and ''Mountain Battles'', released in 2002 and 2008, respectively. In 2013, the foursome reunited for a tour to commemorate ''Last Splash''s 20th anniversary, and the following year, they began working on new songs together. The band Neutral Milk Hotel invited the Breeders to open for them at a September 18 concert at the Hollywood Bowl. The Breeders decided to go on a tour leading up to this show, and to use the opportunity to practice some of their new compositions.
Between September 2 and September 17, the Breeders performed in eleven cities, including St. Louis, Denver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Las Vegas. Support groups the Funs and the Neptunas opened for them at five and six of these eleven shows, respectively. The Breeders then played at the Hollywood Bowl concert, and wrapped up the tour on September 20 at the Goose Island 312 Urban Block Dance Party event in Chicago. On the tour, the Breeders performed four new songs, as well as the compositions "Off You" and "Safari", and numerous selections from the albums ''Last Splash'' and ''Pod''. Among these were "Cannonball", "No Aloha", "Saints", "Divine Hammer", "Doe", and "Iris". The tour received good reviews from critics; appraisal included comments that the performances were rousing, and that the band was as good as—or better than—in its heyday.
== Background ==
In 1993, the Breeders released their second album, ''Last Splash''. At this time, the group’s line-up consisted of sisters Kim and Kelley Deal on guitar and vocals, Josephine Wiggs on bass and vocals, and Jim Macpherson on drums. ''Last Splash'' went silver in the United Kingdom, gold in Canada, and platinum in the United States, and the group toured extensively, including participating in Lollapalooza 1994.〔 In November 1994, Kelley Deal was arrested on heroin-related charges, and in 1995 Wiggs decided to pursue other musical projects.〔 Macpherson continued playing with Kim Deal in her side-project group, the Amps, and then in the 1996 incarnation of the Breeders,〔 but quit the band in 1997. The Breeders’ line-ups for their albums ''Title TK'' (2002) and ''Mountain Battles'' (2008) included the Deal sisters, Mando Lopez, and Jose Medeles. In 2013, Wiggs and Macpherson rejoined the Deals to tour the 20th anniversary of ''Last Splash''—the LSXX Tour.
On December 31, 2013, the Breeders performed their final concert on the 60-date tour in Austin, Texas.〔 The foursome enjoyed the LSXX concerts, and decided that they would like to record new music together.〔 Throughout 2014, Wiggs traveled from her home in Brooklyn, New York to Dayton, Ohio, where Macpherson and both of the Deals live.〔 The group began practicing new material in Kim Deal’s basement,〔 including one composition by Wiggs and others by Deal.〔 By August of that year, there were three songs that they could play well, two less so, and others that they had not yet practiced.〔 Titles of new songs included “Skinhead Number 2”, “Simone”, “All Nerve”, and “Launched”.〔 The group Neutral Milk Hotel asked the Breeders to open for them at a Hollywood Bowl concert to be held on September 18.〔 The Breeders decided to go on a tour leading up to this concert and to perform some new compositions to prepare for the songs’ eventual recording.〔〔〔By November 2014, the Breeders had recorded two of the compositions—"All Nerve" and "Skinhead Number 2"—with engineer Steve Albini (see ).〕
