The enigmatic avant-garde collective The Residents, famed for their eyeball masks, strict anonymity, and five decades of experimental innovation, are launching a historic North American run in 2026. This major The Residents tour, the Eskimo Live! Tour, marks the first time they will perform their landmark 1979 album Eskimo live in full.
The tour begins January 8, 2026, in Vancouver, BC, at the Commodore Ballroom and spans the U.S. and Canada. Major stops include Vancouver, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and Montreal. Each show is staged as an immersive theatrical ritual, with narration and surreal visual elements expanding the album’s mysterious mythology. DJ Carbo will appear as support for the Boston date.
