Hurray for the Riff Raff is readying a new live album, Live Forever, arriving digitally via Nonesuch on March 20. A vinyl and CD release is set for May 8.
Recorded during two summer 2025 shows at Old Town School of Folk Music, Live Forever will feature live versions of the entire Past Is Still Alive album as well as fan favorites including “Pa’lante” and “Precious Cargo.” Below, watch them perform “Rhododendron” at the Chicago venue.
“Chicago has become home for me,” says bandleader Alynda Segarra. “I wanted to capture this time and this brilliant band, a moment that won’t last forever. This record is a love letter to the working class musicians out there, we who slug it out on the road against all odds. We deserve so much more from an industry built to exploit us. It’s a thank you to all the fans supporting live music, you who believe songs made by human beings are a vital life force.”
The band has also announced an East Coast mini-tour, which will see the group headline shows in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. Check out the complete list of Hurray for the Riff Raff tour dates below.
