BEAT is in a groove.
The rock group featuring legends Adrian Belew, Steve Vai, Tony Levin and Terry Bozzio recently announced they’re striking out on a fall 2026 tour where they’ll pay homage to King Crimson at arenas, theaters, music halls, ballrooms, performing arts centers, parks, auditoriums and amphitheaters all over North America.
That includes four New York, New Jersey and Connecticut stops for the prog outfit. They’re slated to go down at:
The Paramount
Huntington, NY
Wednesday, Nov. 4
Mohegan Sun Arena
Uncasville, CT
Thursday, Nov. 5
Prudential Hall
Newark, NJ
Monday, Nov. 9
Kodak Center
Rochester, NY
Wednesday, Nov. 11
If you’d like to see the gifted quartet perform cuts from King Crimson’s ’80s and ’90s records, tickets are available for all 40 North American concerts from October through December.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one show was $66 including fees on SeatGeek (that’s for the gig at Mohegan Sun).
Tickets start at $94 including fees for their Huntington gig.

Drummer Danny Carey will not be joining BEAT on this trek due to prior commitments to Tool. His replacement, Terry Bozzio, has a history with Frank Zappa and Missing Persons and the respect of his bandmates.
“Terry is one of the truly legendary drummers of our time, whose remarkable career and unique musical voice make him the perfect artist to join us for this tour,” Vai said. “He brings his own extraordinary artistry to BEAT, and that’s something worth celebrating.”
Prior to this upcoming run, the unique outfit delivered reinterpretations of iconic ’80s King Crimson albums “Discipline,” “Beat” and “Three of A Perfect Pair” on their 2024 North American outing, all of which Belew and Levin contributed to from 1981-84.
“Supergroups like this don’t happen very often,” Parklife DC rhapsodized in a review of an October 2024 concert at the Warner Theater. “Between the musicianship and the narrow focus of the setlist, this show was as unique as the band. They played complex music effortlessly and everyone had room to shine.”

Who is in BEAT?
The foursome is made up of:

Steve Vai is considered one of the most virtuosic guitarists alive. Over the course of his prolific career, the gifted axeman has won three Grammys, performed with Zappa, Ozzy Osbourne and Whitesnake and dropped 11 studio albums from 1984-2023..
Tony Levin plays bass, sings and rocks the Chapman Stick. On top of his work with King Crimson and BEAT, the Boston native contributed to Peter Gabriel, Stick Men and Liquid Tension Experiment. In September 2024, he released the solo album “Bringing It Down to the Bass.”
Terry Bozzio has been playing drums since he was six-years-old (which was way back in 1956). In the years since he got his start, the prolific vet has performed with Frank Zappa, U.K., Missing Persons and HoBoLeMa.
