The 15th edition lineup of the popular tour of ’60s pop music acts, known as the Happy Together tour, has been announced, with many 2025 dates already revealed. The tour is named, of course, for the Turtles’ big hit that reached #1 on March 25, 1967. The new edition begins in early June, and typically continues into early September with around 50 concerts. See the initial itinerary below. This year’s tour marks the eagerly awaited return of Mark Lindsay, lead singer of Paul Revere & the Raiders, who is sufficiently recovered from various ankle injuries.

The Turtles continue as the signature headliners, but with the voice of the Archies, Ron Dante, again joining Turtles founding member and singer Mark Volman. (Fellow Turtles founder, Howard Kaylan, hasn’t participated for several years.)

The rest of the 2025 lineup: Jay and the Americans, Little Anthony, Lindsay, the Vogues, and The Cowsills. Together, they represent dozens of Top 10 radio hits.

The Turtles have sold over 40 million records worldwide. Their hits include: “Happy Together,” “She’d Rather Be With Me,” “Elenore,” “It Ain’t Me Babe” and “You Showed Me.”

Jay and the Americans earned success throughout the ’60s with such catchy hit singles as “This Magic Moment,” “Cara Mia” and “Come a Little Bit Closer.” Their longtime lead vocalist, Jay Black, died in 2021.

Little Anthony returns to the lineup after several years’ absence. The popular singer is known for such hits as “Tears on My Pillow” and “Goin’ Out of My Head.”

Mark Lindsay returns to the fold for the first time in years. The popular singer of such Raiders hits as “Kicks,” “Good Thing” and “Indian Reservation” turned 82 earlier this year.

The Vogues scored such Top 10 singles as “Turn Around, Look at Me,” “You’re the One” and “Five O’Clock World.”

The Cowsills have been part of the last several years of the tour. Bob, Paul and Susan Cowsill are a family singing group and the original inspiration for television’s The Partridge Family and are best known for the songs “The Rain, The Park and Other Things,” “Hair,” “Indian Lake” and “Love American Style.” They released a well-received studio album, Rhythm of the World, in 2022 and a Christmas ep in 2023. Their “lost” album from the early ’90s was expanded and reissued in 2024.
