Flyleaf Announce 20th Anniversary Tour With Lacey Sturm

Flyleaf are officially turning back the clock. The Texas alt-rock band has announced a 20th Anniversary Tour featuring original lead vocalist Lacey Sturm, marking the first full headline run with Sturm since her departure in 2012.

Produced by Live Nation, the 14-city tour kicks off July 8 at the Tabernacle in Atlanta and runs through July 31, wrapping at House of Blues in Anaheim. Along the way, the band will hit Boston, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix and more major markets.

Tickets will first be available through the Citi Entertainment presale beginning Tuesday, February 24 at 10 am ET. The presale runs through Thursday, February 26 at 10 pm local time. Full details are available at citientertainment.com. General onsale begins Friday, February 27 at 10 am local time via LiveNation.com.

The anniversary run celebrates two decades of Flyleaf’s breakout era. Their 2005 self-titled debut album is certified Platinum by the RIAA and produced the multi-Platinum singles “All Around Me,” “I’m So Sick,” and “Fully Alive.” According to the Recording Industry Association of America, “All Around Me” is certified 4x Platinum, “I’m So Sick” is 2x Platinum, and “Fully Alive” is certified Platinum.

Originally formed under the name Passerby, Flyleaf began as a collaboration between Lacey Sturm and drummer James Culpepper before expanding to include Sameer Bhattacharya and Jared Hartmann. After building a grassroots following across Texas, the band officially adopted the name Flyleaf in 2004 and quickly broke into mainstream rock radio. Their 2009 sophomore album Memento Mori debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200.

Sturm exited the band in 2012 and later pursued a solo career. In 2023, Flyleaf reunited with Sturm for major festival appearances including Sick New World, Louder Than Life, and Aftershock, signaling renewed momentum for the band’s original lineup era.

In addition to the tour, deluxe vinyl editions of Flyleaf’s self-titled debut and Memento Mori are scheduled for release in summer 2026 via Interscope Records.
