311 is set to ignite the summer with the launch of their , starting June 20 at Atlantic City’s Ocean Casino Resort. The opening night at Ovation Hall features supporting acts Badflower and Sitting on Saturn, promising fans an energetic start to the tour. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with tickets available through major vendors.
This year’s tour is especially significant for 311, as it marks the 30th anniversary of their iconic self-titled “Blue Album,” originally released in 1995. To celebrate, the band will release a special two-LP edition of the album on July 11, which includes seven previously unreleased tracks from the original recording sessions. The album’s hit singles, “Down” and “All Mixed Up,” played a major role in propelling the record to over three million sales in the U.S.
311’s journey began in Omaha, Nebraska, with founding members Nick Hexum, Tim Mahoney, Chad Sexton, and Aaron Wills coming together in 1988. Doug Martinez joined in the early 1990s, solidifying the lineup. Their first show took place on June 10, 1990, opening for Fugazi in Omaha. Before signing with Capricorn Records, the band released three independent albums: “Dammit,” “Hydroponic,” and “Unity.”
Now, after three decades and fourteen studio albums, 311 continues to deliver their signature fusion of rock, reggae, hip-hop, and funk. Their latest album, “Full Bloom,” showcases both their classic sound and new creative directions.
The Unity Tour 2025 will visit venues nationwide, giving fans across the country a chance to join in the celebration of 311’s enduring legacy.
