It’s hard to believe that nearly 25 years have passed since Pete Yorn released his debut album, “musicforthemorningafter.” The album received critical acclaim, with publications like Spin praising him as one of his generation’s best songwriters. Now, Yorn is celebrating this milestone anniversary with a tour that has his fans buzzing with excitement.
In a recent TikTok video, Yorn announced the “musicforthemorningafter 25th Anniversary Celebration,” featuring favorites from the album, along with stories, inspirations, and music spanning his entire catalog. Fans were thrilled by the news, with one commenting that the album is a top 10 favorite for them and never gets old.
The anniversary tour is set to kick off in Pioneertown, Calif. on Jan. 24, 2026, and will conclude on May 9 in Columbus, Ohio.
After the success of their first album together in 2009, Yorn and Scarlett Johansson collaborated on an EP called “Apart” in 2018. In an interview with Forbes, Yorn revealed that the reason for their reunion was his nostalgia for singing with Johansson and their shared history. Yorn expressed how happy he was that she was on board for the project, especially now that they both have daughters and a changed perspective on life.
When asked if there were any songs from their first album together that he’d want to revisit, Yorn opened up about the personal struggles he was going through during the recording of “Break Up.” He reflected on how revisiting these songs brings back memories of where he was in life during that time, allowing him to interpret them in new ways based on his growth and experiences.
Rumors are swirling that Yorn and Johansson may collaborate on another album in the future, but for now, fans will have to wait and see.
In the meantime, Yorn’s fans are eagerly anticipating his anniversary tour and the chance to celebrate 25 years of “musicforthemorningafter” with him.
