Till Lindemann concert chronology

The Zunge Tour was a concert tour by German singer Till Lindemann, in support of his debut solo album, Zunge , which was released a few days before the start of the tour. The tour was under the critical observation of the media and the public, as the singer was accused the same year of systematic abuse of power and drugging of women at and after Rammstein and Lindemann concerts. It began on 8 November 2023, in Leipzig and ended on 20 October 2024 in São Paulo in Brazil.

Contents

Lindemann played mostly in Europe and North America, but also three concerts in Mexico and one concert in Brazil. [1]

Background

At the end of April 2023, the singer announced his new tour, which was initially limited to Europe but was later extended to Mexico. [2]

In the course of the same year, Lindemann announced his debut solo album Zunge and released five new singles and three music videos. It quickly became known that the album would be self-distributed, as Universal and Lindemann decided not to release it together due to the accusations against him. For this reason, the album could only be bought at Lindemann's concerts and later in the Rammstein store. [3]

Protests against Lindemann's appearance took place outside the venues in Germany and no journalists were allowed during the first concert in Leipzig. [4]

The North American leg began on 17 September 2024 in San Antonio, [5] and was supported by Twin Temple and Aesthetic Perfection. [6] Lindemann also performed at the festivals Knotfest Iowa, and Louder Than Life. [7]
