NEW ORLEANS (NOLA WEEKEND) - New Orleans punk-rap duo Suicideboys, stylized as $uicideboy$, will perform in New Orleans at the Smoothie King Center on Sept. 1.

The massive 2023 “Grey Day” tour will include more than 40 shows at arenas and amphitheaters across the U.S. this summer and fall, kicking off in late August.

Trap-metal artist Ghostemane and New York rap-metal group City Morgue will provide support on the tour, as well as Sematary and Ramirez.

Ticket pre-sales will start at 10 a.m. on Thursday, May 18, with ticket sales for the general public happening at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 19. More information about ticket sales is listed at the G*59 Records website, g59records.com.

Since their founding in 2014, the New Orleans-bred duo of cousins—Scott Arcenaux Jr. with the stage name $crim and Aristos Petrou known as Ruby da Cherry—has gained a cult following as a popular act in the underground rap scene.

This month, $uicideboy$ drops a four-part conceptual EP series, the “Yin Yang Tapes.” Each Friday in May, the duo unveils a new four-song EP named after one of the four seasons.

The pair has already released the first two parts, “Spring Season” and “Summer Season,” with the final two parts, “Fall Season” and “Winter Season” dropping on May 19 and May 26.

$uicideboy$ has also recently made their first appearance as a top-billed act at the 2023 Coachella Music Festival.
