Cameron Whitcomb Launches September 24 Run at Ryman Auditorium
Cameron Whitcomb announced The Kingdom of Fear Tour, and cameron whitcomb’s new US headline run begins September 24 at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium. It closes October 31 at Houston’s House of Blues, giving the singer-songwriter his biggest run of this kind yet.
Ryman to House of Blues
The tour starts with an October-spanning route that moves through major rooms in Nashville, Atlanta, Tulsa, Seattle, Los Angeles, Austin, and Houston. Whitcomb’s stops include Atlanta’s Tabernacle on September 25, Tulsa’s Cain’s Ballroom on September 30, Seattle’s Paramount Theatre on October 14, Los Angeles’ The Wiltern on October 20, and Austin’s Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheater on October 23.
That routing signals a step up in scale. A run built around historic theaters and recognizable club and amphitheater stops usually gives an artist more leverage than a string of smaller rooms, especially when the billing is framed as one of the biggest headline stretches of a career so far.
May 12 and May 15 sales
Tickets go on sale in two stages before the first show. Artist and Citi presales begin Tuesday, May 12 at 10am local time, and the general on-sale starts Friday, May 15 at 10am local time. For anyone trying to get in early, that is the only practical window the announcement gives.
Whitcomb also tied the run to a charity split through PLUS1, with $1 from every ticket sold going to Project Healthy Minds. The organization works to expand access to mental health services across America, so the tour is carrying a built-in donation component on every ticket rather than a one-off benefit stop.
June 2 and the busy slate
Whitcomb resumes his Fragile Egos Tour on June 2 at Detroit’s Saint Andrew’s Hall, continues supporting HARDY on THE COUNTRY! COUNTRY! TOUR! across the US and Canada into the summer, and has a sold-out Australia and New Zealand headline tour on the calendar. His new EP, Deep Water, is also out now via Atlantic Outpost.
For buyers, the near-term decision is straightforward: presale access starts May 12 at 10am local time, general sales follow May 15 at 10am local time, and the first headline date lands September 24 in Nashville. The run’s scale, paired with the $1-per-ticket donation, makes this the most consequential ticket drop in Whitcomb’s current cycle.
