E For the most up-to-date concert info, visit the Y&T Tour Dates page.
Rock Your Start to the New Year
The first Y&T shows of the year came early in 2018. In California, though the Meniketti Wines event/Y&T acoustic set and the Tracy show both sold out, you can still choose from Fresno or Santa Cruz, on January 19 & 20. Then the US tour begins. The boys of Y&T are excited to bring their high-energy show across the nation once again. Get your tickets for the US Winter/Spring tour: http://www.yandtrocks.com/tour/
San Francisco!
Y&T plays the historic Fillmore in San Francisco, CA on Saturday 24 March. We're thrilled to have Frank Hannon (of Tesla) open this year's Fillmore show. Get your tickets early!
Y&T Acoustic Treat
Y&T has just released their first-ever acoustic EP: Acoustic Classix Vol. 1. Recorded in December 2017, the band has included 6 classic Y&T songs on this first acoustic release, with a few songs you wouldn't expect to hear acoustically, each with a different spin. This is a very special EP that gives Y&T fans a whole new way to enjoy these classic Y&T tunes. Available exclusively from the Y&T webstore and at select shows.
New Gear for the New Year
Check out the Y&T store to see our newest shirts for 2018. Choose from the US Winter/Spring tour shirt & long sleeve shirt, both celebrating the 35-year anniversary of the Mean Streak album, and the ladies' tank with a smashing design that features the Y&T logo with a colorful heart and the Y&T song title "Straight Thru the Heart." Available for pre-order now, all three shirts ship mid-January. Available exclusively in the Y&T webstore and at select shows.
