(ASBURY PARK, NJ) -- Summer 2025 just got even busier for the West Coast hip-hop legends Cypress Hill as they’ll be hitting the road for their month-long Dank Daze of Summer Tour with hip-hop duo, Atmosphere. Joining them will be Grammy Award-winning rapper Lupe Fiasco, and influential, LA-based hip-hop act The Pharcyde. The tour comes to the Stone Pony Summer Stage in Asbury Park on Sunday, August 17th. Gates open at 5:00pm.
In addition to hitting the road this summer, Cypress Hill has had a massive year in the works, keeping fans fed with new projects and upcoming releases. Cypress Hill and the London Symphony Orchestra: Black Sunday Live at the Royal Albert Hall, the feature-length concert film, was released as a special limited-run theatrical event on March 30, 31, and April 2, screening in over 500 select theaters across the U.S. and Canada.
Building on that momentum, the group’s full-length live album of the same performance will drop June 6th. Witnessed only by thousands of Cypress devotees, the album allows fans all over the globe to experience the magic created when the legendary Black Sunday album meets the power of the renowned 70-piece LSO. Fans can also celebrate the impact of Black Sunday with a new limited-edition graphic novel, Cypress Hill: Black Sunday, created in partnership with Z2 Comics. The book is available for pre-order now and will be released on June 3rd.
For over two decades, Atmosphere has maintained a course of rigorous output, releasing over two dozen studio albums, EP's and collaborative side projects in as many years. In that time, the venerated duo have built a legacy out of bringing honesty, humility and vulnerability to the forefront of their music, continually challenging themselves to evolve without straying too far from their roots.
Slug has proven masterful at storytelling and writing compelling narratives, leaving a trail of his own influence while paying homage to the rappers and songwriters that helped shape him. Ant has skillfully molded the soundtracks with inspiration from soul, funk, rock, reggae, and the wizardry of hip-hop’s pioneering DJ's and producers, creating his own trademark sounds while providing the pulse for songs about life, love, stress and setbacks. At its essence, Atmosphere has been a musical shepherd, and with each new album comes a new journey as they guide generations of listeners through this thing called life.
Tickets for the Stone Pony Summer Stage show are available for purchase online starting Wednesday, April 23 at 10:00am. The Stone Pony is located at 913 Ocean Avenue in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Show is open to all ages and takes place rain or shine.
