Michael Nesmith and Micky Dolenz of The Monkees will launch a new tour and release their 1st ever live album as a duo on April 3rd, 2020. Billed as “An Evening With The Monkees,” the tour will feature songs that span the band’s entire 50+ year career, from their 1966 self titled debut to 2016’s "Good Times". "The Monkees : The Mike & Micky Show Live" will be available on CD and digitally, via streaming services.

Produced by The Monkees’ archivist Andrew Sandoval and mixed by Christian Nesmith, the album was recorded live in March 2019. The collection includes performances of all 3 of the band’s # 1 hits, “Last Train To Clarksville”, “I’m A Believer” and “Daydream Believer”.

In addition to those hits, the live album also spotlights many of Nesmith’s finest compositions, including several songs that were never performed live during the Monkees’ heyday, like “St. Matthew” and “Auntie’s Municipal Court”. Other Nesmith penned tunes on the collection include live versions of “The Girl I Knew Somewhere”, “Listen To The Band”, “Papa Gene’s Blues”, “You Just May Be The One” and “You Told Me”.

Dolenz takes the spotlight singing hits like “Pleasant Valley Sunday”, “Randy Scouse Git”, “Mary, Mary”, “Goin’ Down”, “For Pete’s Sake” and “Porpoise Song”. The collection also features live versions of “Me & Magdelena” and “Birth Of An Accidental Hipster” from The Monkees’ most recent studio album, "Good Times" from 2016.
