Have Heart broke up in 2009 and prior to last month's performance in Detroit, hadn't been seen live since 2019. Many fans wondered if this tour would spark the reunion many of them have hoped for. 

Vocalist Pat Flynn shared a message via social media last night expressing gratitude and thanks for the support, but also clarified they are not "back".

Flynn shared the following:

As the festival part of this run is over, leaving just two DIY shows in NYC and Boston, here is some quick gratitude and praise…

The set at Tied Down in Detroit felt surreal and wholly intense. Took a few weeks for it to set in for us. Then the massiveness of Outbreak in Manchester UK hit us like a block of bricks. And then of course there was last Sunday in LA at Sound & Fury. Still buzzing and will be for as long as we can remember the otherworldly nature of the human connection of that night.

There was a perfection to playing in an abandoned Ford Factory in Detroit, in the Manchester rain and along rows of LA palm trees. However, there is no magic in any of those three nights without the organizers of these festivals or the wild, but good people in the crowd.

We're not "back" as a band and it's best we stay away after this run of shows to keep space and focus on the bands of today making new art. But we are incredibly grateful to play in what feels like a positive time for HC.

As for what's left in NYC and Boston, let's "tear this place down…" Peace & Love
