Pixies to play Des Moines summer show

The Pixies are coming to Hoyt Sherman Place in Des Moines this summer.
Tickets for the July 3 show go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday. Prices range from $52 to $82, plus fees.
The Pixies broke out more than 30 years ago with their 1988 debut album “Surfer Rosa,” which includes “Where is My Mind?” — one of the band’s signature songs. They released three other studio albums and performed sold-out world arena tours before disbanding in 1993.
The band reunited in 2004. Their sixth studio album “Head Carrier” was released Sept. 30, 2016.
The Pixies influenced several alternative rock bands that defined the late ’80s and early ’90s, including U2, Radiohead, Nirvana and Alice in Chains. They are co-headlining a summer tour with famed rock band Weezer, though that dual show is not making a stop in Iowa.
Tickets for the Hoyt Sherman Place show can be purchased at the box office, located at 1501 Woodland Ave., charged by phone at 800-745-3000 or online at ticketmaster.com.
