Grammy-nominated Americana powerhouse Marcus King is set to dominate the summer stages of North America.

A Hero’s Welcome in Music City
The tour kicks off on May 16 in Atlanta, but the crown jewel of the schedule is a massive hometown show: Marcus King Band and Friends at Nashville’s Municipal Auditorium on May 27. This performance serves as a victory lap for the artist, whose latest record was recently hailed as one of "Nashville’s Best Albums of 2025" by The Tennessean.
From NYC Residencies to Global Stages
Before the summer run begins, King is keeping a relentless pace. He will headline a prestigious one-week residency at New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club (March 13–19) followed by a headline tour in Australia. Fans can also catch the band at major festivals including Stagecoach, Gulf Coast Jam, and Bourbon & Beyond.
Supporting the tour on select dates are rising stars Penelope Road and Willow Avalon, adding even more depth to a show already praised by Forbes for its "old-school rock rowdiness."
