INDIANAPOLIS–Four-time Grammy nominated rock band “Goo Goo Dolls” will be performing at the Everwise Amphitheater at White River State Park on Friday August 15, 2025.

This is part of the Jack Daniel’s Concert Series. They are also performing with special guest Dashboard Confessional.

Local pre-sale begins on Thursday November 21 from 10 am to 10 pm local time. Public on-sale kicks off Friday November 22 at 10 am local time on LiveNation.com.

They are supposed to perform a career-encompassing set that features several songs from their 2022 album Chaos in Bloom along with some of their other hits like “Iris.”

In addition, they will be partnering with Joe Torre Safe at Home for the tour. That’s a nonprofit founded in 2002 by Ali and Joe Torre to provide healing and education services to youth who have been traumatized by exposure to violence including domestic violence, child abuse, teen dating abuse, and sexual assault. Their goal is to break the cycle of violence.

The Goo Goo Dolls were formed by John Rzeznik and Robby Takac in Buffalo, New York back in 1986.

“We are truly excited to bring our Summer Anthem Tour 2025 to all our friends. We’re busy putting together our 15th studio album so we will have some great new songs and of course we’ll be playing all the songs you know and love. Every tour we do is about making new friends and reuniting with everyone who’s been with us since day one. Thank you! In addition, we’ll be joined by Dashboard confessional. One of the last great American rock bands. It’s gonna be a summer of loud music and good friends and I can’t wait to get it going! By the way, It’s the 25th anniversary of our album A Boy Named Goo. Seems like yesterday. Where did the time go? Love you all and can’t wait to see you. Don’t forget to sing along!’,” said Rzeznik.
