ABOUT TRAIN
Train is a multi-GRAMMY Award-winning, diamond-selling band from San Francisco that has had 14 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and 13 albums on the Billboard 200 chart. Train’s climb to the top began in 1994, as the original five-member band tenaciously built a loyal hometown following, leading up to their debut self-titled album released by Columbia in 1998. The tumbling wordplay of “Meet Virginia” gave them their first unlikely radio hit, and 2001’s Drops of Jupiter broke them to multi-platinum status thanks to the double-GRAMMY-winning title song that spent 10 months in the Top 40, has been certified RIAA 8x platinum, and earned the 2001 GRAMMY Award for “Best Rock Song”. The group won another GRAMMY in 2011 for their global hit “Hey, Soul Sister” from their multi-platinum album Save Me, San Francisco (2009), which was the No.1 best-selling smash and most downloaded single of 2010, achieved RIAA Diamond status in 2021 and now 11x platinum, and in 2022 surpassed one billion streams on Spotify.
Train has sold more than 10 million albums and 30 million tracks worldwide, with multiple platinum/gold citations, including three GRAMMY Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, and dozens of other honors. They’ve had 24 Top 10 songs across the Billboard charts and six Top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart including Drops of Jupiter (2001), My Private Nation (2003), California 37 (2012), Bulletproof Picasso (2014), For Me, It’s You (2016), and a girl a bottle a boat (2017). This past summer, Train took over amphitheaters across the country on a co-headline tour with REO Speedwagon, and most recently, released a new album, Live at Royal Albert Hall, recorded live from their sold-out, debut performance at the iconic and historic Royal Albert Hall in London.
Train frontman, Pat Monahan, partakes in other ventures outside of music, including his award-winning wine portfolio, Save Me, San Francisco Wine Co, which was created in 2011 and has sold over 10 million bottles and won over 100 medals. Proceeds from his wine business support Family House, a San Francisco charity that supports families of children with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. Monahan has appeared on television and in film with credits that include the 2021 Hallmark Channel original movie, Christmas in Tahoe, inspired by Train’s album of the same name, which he executive produced and starred, Dr. Ken, 90210, CBS’s Hawaii Five-0 and Magnum P.I., The Voice, American Idol, and The Bachelor.

Following the popularity of last year’s sold-out US arena tour, the band will embark on additional dates across North America this upcoming summer, performing Morning View in its entirety + the hits. The thirteen-city tour begins on June 25th and will make a stop at Mohegan Sun Arena on Saturday, June 28th at 7:30pm.
The Morning View + The Hits tour launched this past summer on the heels of the release of Morning View XXIII last year, a re-recording of their 2001 multi-platinum original album Morning View that spent 60 weeks on the Billboard 200 peaking at No 2.
Tickets go on sale Friday, January 31st, at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com. Incubus fans can purchase tickets at the Mohegan Sun Box Office on Saturday, February 1st, subject to availability.
A portion of the proceeds from each ticket sold on the North America tour will be distributed by the band’s Make Yourself Foundation to provide critical relief and long-term recovery support for the communities impacted by the devastating LA wildfires.
Citi is the official card of the Morning View + The Hits tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, January 28th at 10:00am local time until Thursday, January 30th at 10:00pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program.

ABOUT INCUBUS
As a sonic and spiritual enigma, Incubus continue to stretch, shape, and shake the foundation of alternative music, embracing endless possibilities and eclipsing any and all boundaries in the process. The multiplatinum Los Angeles band—Brandon Boyd [vocals], Mike Einziger [guitar, piano, backing vocals], José Pasillas II [drums], Chris Kilmore [turntables, keyboards], and Nicole Row [bass]—tune into the creative exchange between them and beam it back to audiences as loudly (and lovingly) as possible. To date, the quintet have notably sold over 23 million albums, scored dozens of multi-platinum and platinum certifications around the globe, gathered billions of streams, and notched six consecutive Top 5 debuts on the Billboard 200. At the same time, they have graced the bills of festivals such as BottleRock, Ohana, Lollapalooza, and Rock In Rio in addition to headlining arenas and amphitheaters worldwide. During 2021, the musicians celebrated the 20th anniversary of their seminal double-platinum third full-length offering, Morning View, with a worldwide livestream. Incubus returned to the house where they famously recorded the album and performed the entire track listing from front-to-back for the first time. It incited a rapturous fan response, and the band decided to do it again in October 2023. The group sold out the legendary Hollywood Bowl and performed Morning View in front of a hometown audience, unassumingly kickstarting another era. Between releasing Morning View XXIII, a re-recording of their 2001 massive album, and launching a massive US Morning View + The Hits arena tour last year, they ignite the next phase of Incubus with a brand new 2025 tour and more new music on the horizon. So, are you in?
