Blondie, the boundary-pushing pop-punk band led by Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, will come to Packard Music Hall on June 29.

Tickets are $36.50, $46.50 and $56.50, and go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster and the venue box office.

For the last four decades, Blondie has influenced the worlds of music, fashion and art. The band from New York helped push punk onto the dance floor at the dawn of the new wave era and introduced a wider audience to hip-hop sounds, all while building a catalog of enduring pop hits that includes “Rapture,” “Heart of Glass,” “Call Me,” “The Tide Is High” and “One Way Or Another.”

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Blondie recently released “Blondie 4(0) Ever: Greatest Hits Deluxe Redux/Ghosts of Download,” a two-disc package that includes a greatest hits album and a brand new album.

“Ghosts,” Blondie’s 10th studio album, follows the band’s acclaimed 2011 album, “Panic Of Girls.”
