The Growlers return to the Music Farm for the first time since 2019

After the band's 2026 comeback, the Growlers come back to the room they last played in August 2019, with an April 13 date at the Music Farm.

The Growlers' last Charleston show was at the Music Farm on Aug. 4, 2019. It was a stop on a summer tour, and nobody in the room knew it would be the band's last trip through for nearly eight years. In April they are back on the same stage.

The Growlers play the Music Farm on Tuesday, April 13, 2027. The show starts at 8 p.m., and tickets are $57.05 through Ticketmaster. The date was announced Oct. 20 and is the band's first Charleston show since 2019.

That gap matches the band's own story. Their 2026 run was their first global tour since 2019. It started in Australia, spread to the UK and Europe, and then reached North America. NYS Music called the band's spring stop at Brooklyn Steel a "long awaited return." A fall West Coast leg followed in September and October and ended with a hometown show at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on Oct. 3, 2026. Hypebot's artist page shows the band booked for shows across 2026 and 2027, and the Charleston date is part of that next stretch.

Charleston has history with this band. Before the 2019 show, the Growlers played the Music Farm on Oct. 4, 2016, on a fall run. In both of their last two trips through town, they played the same room on East Bay Street. Coming back there in 2027 makes the return feel like picking up where things left off.

Eight years is a long time to wait for a band to come back to the same room.

The Music Farm holds about 800, which keeps the night close. A Tuesday in April is a school night for some, but the 8 p.m. start leaves room to get there after work. A Growlers crowd tends to know every word, and the band has spent the last year proving it still draws that crowd in cities that waited a long time.

If you were at the Music Farm in 2016 or 2019, April 13 is the next chapter. If the band came along after they stopped touring, this is the first real chance to see them in town. Either way, it has been a long wait, and the band is coming back to the right room.
