Stand Together Tour

Aloe Blacc to perform at Ridgefield Playhouse in Ridgefield Connecticut in August 2025

Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum artist Aloe Blacc has officially announced his 2025 Stand Together Tour, a global series of live performances in support of his acclaimed new album Stand Together (Grand Scheme Productions via Vydia, a gamma. company). The tour, which began earlier this month at BeachLife Festival in Redondo Beach, CA, will include U.S. and European dates throughout the summer and fall — with a stop at the Ridgefield Playhouse in Ridgefield, Connecticut.

Blacc’s catalog includes the diamond-certified, multi-billion streamed hit “Wake Me Up” with Avicii, as well as the socially impactful anthems “I Need A Dollar” and “The Man.” His celebrated albums Good Things and Lift Your Spirit (which earned a GRAMMY nomination for Best R&B Album) have cemented him as a dynamic voice in both music and cultural dialogue.

The Stand Together Tour will take Blacc across a range of venues, from major festivals and historic theaters to intimate jazz clubs and performing arts centers. Highlights include two-night runs at Minneapolis’ Dakota Jazz Club (Aug 22–23), 3Ten ACL Live in Austin (Sept 12–13), Judson’s at the Dr. Phillips Center in Orlando (Sept 19–21), and Garcia’s Chicago (Oct 3–4). In July, he heads overseas for appearances at Kongsberg Jazz Fest (Norway), Afro-Latino Festival (Belgium), and two sold-out nights at Ronnie Scott’s in London. Select U.S. dates will feature Aloe performing alongside Fitz & The Tantrums(OC Fair) and Andy Grammer (Chateau Ste. Michelle).

Blacc will also mark a major milestone this June with his official Grand Ole Opry debut, set for Saturday, June 14. Taking place on Father’s Day weekend, the three-song set will include the emotional standout “Daddy Told Me So,” from Stand Together — a poignant tribute to his late father, who retired as a Major in the U.S. Marine Corps. With its blend of majestic horns, drumline snares, and personal storytelling, the track reflects Aloe’s ability to translate universal themes of love, loss, and legacy into timeless music.

Released earlier this year, Stand Together is Aloe’s first album of original material in five years — a 12-track collection that pairs each song with a nonprofit organization, using genre-blending soul, pop, and R&B to spark unity, empathy, and social impact. The project has been supported by high-profile performances and appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Good Morning America, CBS Saturday Morning, NPR Weekend Edition, The Jennifer Hudson Show, and more.
