The wait is over – American sensation Role Model is hitting our shores! The talented Tucker Pillsbury has just revealed the dates for his UK and European tour in early 2027, and it's a game-changer. This tour will be all about celebrating the release of his forthcoming third studio album, 'Chuck Timely & The Hourglass', dropping on August 7.
First up, Role Model will be crisscrossing North America from September to October 2026, bringing his unique sound to US cities and Canada with Samia joining him as special guest. But the real excitement begins in early 2027 when he takes the stage across Europe – get ready for electrifying performances in Berlin, Amsterdam, Brussels, Düsseldorf, and Paris! And, of course, this is just the warm-up for the UK and Ireland leg, where fans will be treated to two unforgettable shows.
London, are you ready? Role Model brings his A-game to the OVO Arena Wembley on February 24, 2027. And Dublin, don't miss out! The 3Arena will be rocking on February 22, 2027. Special guest opener Keni Titus joins him for all these highly anticipated dates.
Role Model's star has been rising since he was named one of NME's 100 artists to watch in 2019 – his innovative blend of R&B with a social conscience has been making waves globally. With two critically acclaimed albums already under his belt, 'Rx' and 'Kansas Anymore', fans are eagerly anticipating what he has up his sleeve next.
Tickets for the tour go on sale at 10am local time on June 26 – but don't worry if you can't get them then. Artist pre-sales will open a day earlier, so sign up in advance to snag those coveted spots! And as if that's not enough, UK fans can catch Role Model at Reading & Leeds and Electric Picnic this summer before he takes centre stage on his headline tour.
This announcement follows the recent release of new single 'High Hopes 3000' – and just in case you needed another reason to get excited, Role Model's performance at Bonnaroo festival in the US is still buzzing. He's spoken about how touring inspires him to keep creating, saying it helps him "understand what works and what doesn't" and fuels his passion for making art.
