The tour is named after Journey’s latest album, Freedom, which was released last July and peaked at Number Nine on Billboard’s Independent Albums chart. The tour will double as Journey’s 50th-anniversary trek.

Journey co-founder and leader, guitarist Neal Schon said in the tour announcement: “We are all thankful and overwhelmed by the success of our Journey Freedom Tour 2022 this year and have added a new run of dates for 2023. We are looking forward to hitting the road again with our very good friends, Toto! Come join us for a special evening full of fun and rockin’ good memories. See you soon, friends.”

Keyboardist Jonathan Cain added: “Excited to perform for our fans as we tour next year with Toto. The combined hits of both bands represent a couple of decades of excellence that have become a soundtrack for people’s lives. The music of Journey, along with the music of Toto, is an example of ‘certain music’ during ‘uncertain times.'”

Toto’s co-founding guitarist Steve Lukather said: “On behalf of myself and the band, we are very honored and excited to do this tour with our old and dear friends, Journey. Gonna be a great night of music, and as all the guys are lifelong friends… a blast off-stage as well.”
