mssv (Mike Watt, Mike Baggetta, Stephen Hodges) touring in 2022

mssv, aka the “post-genre power trio” of guitarist Mike Baggetta, drummer Stephen Hodges and bassist Mike Watt, were supposed to tour in 2020 around their appearance at Big Ears festival, but the pandemic had other plans. They’re finally gonna hit the road in 2022 for a fairly massive 42-date tour that kicks off March 14 in Mike Watt’s hometown of San Pedro, heads east and then back again, wrapping up on April 30 in L.A. and hitting most major cities in the Continental U.S. along the way. They’ll play Big Ears, too. All dates are listed below, though they haven’t announced venues for most shows yet.

The NYC stop is at Mercury Lounge on April 3 and tickets for that show go on sale Friday, October 29 at 10 AM.

mssv released their debut album, Main Steam Stop Valve, a year ago which incorporates jazz, garage rock, surf and more. Stream that below.
