Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend of The Who have announced the ‘Song Is Over Tour’, which will see the band perform their final shows across North America. The announcement came during a London press conference attended by guitarist Pete Townshend, with frontman Roger Daltrey appearing over video call.

The Who first toured in North America in 1967, and have since enjoyed a career of six decades. The farewell tour, billed as their very last, will kick off in August 2025.

“Well, all good things must come to an end.”

“It is a poignant time. For me, playing to American audiences and those in Canada has always been incredible. The warmth and engagement of those audiences began back in 1967 with hippies smoking dope, sitting on their blankets, and listening deeply and intensely. Music was everywhere. We all felt equal. Today, Roger and I still carry the banner for the late Keith Moon and John Entwistle and of course, all of our longtime Who fans.

“I must say that although the road has not always been enjoyable for me, it is usually easy: the best job I could ever have had,” he added. “I keep coming back. Every time I do, I meet new fans and feel new energy. Roger and I are in a good place, despite our age, eager to throw our weight behind this fond farewell to all our faithful fans, and hopefully to new ones who might jump in to see what they have been missing for the last 57 years. This tour will be about fond memories, love and laughter. Make sure you join in.”
