Kings of Leon Announce 2027 North American Tour with New Album

Kings of Leon have announced a 30-date North American tour for 2027, their first major outing in support of their tenth studio album, O My Beloved. The tour kicks off on May 8 in Bristow, Virginia, and wraps on October 15 at New York’s Madison Square Garden, spanning arenas and amphitheaters across the U.S. and Canada. The band will be joined by Band of Horses and Dexter and the Moonrocks on select dates, offering fans a mix of new material and hits from their two-decade career.

A New Chapter for Kings of Leon

O My Beloved, released in 2026 via Love Tap Records, marks a creative shift for the Nashville-based rock band. After a career spanning ten albums, over 20 million records sold, and four Grammy Awards, Kings of Leon have embraced self-production for the first time, giving them full control over their sound. The result is a departure from their earlier, grittier rock anthems, favoring introspective lyrics, acoustic warmth, and Americana-inspired melodies. Frontman Caleb Followill described the album as a reflection on family, childhood memories, and personal growth—topics that resonate deeply with longtime fans who have followed the band’s evolution.

The album’s lead single, My Whole World, sets the tone with its stripped-back instrumentation and themes of gratitude. Tracks like Make It Count deliver a mix of wisdom and urgency, urging listeners to embrace life’s fleeting moments. For a band that once dominated charts with hits like Sex on Fire and Use Somebody, O My Beloved signals a mature, unfiltered return to their roots—one that prioritizes authenticity over commercial expectations.

Tour Dates and Support Acts

The 2027 tour is split into two legs, with Band of Horses and Dexter and the Moonrocks alternating as support acts. Band of Horses, known for their indie-rock sound, will open the first 13 shows, including stops in Philadelphia, Toronto, and Tinley Park, Illinois. Dexter and the Moonrocks take over for the fall leg, joining Kings of Leon for high-profile venues like Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena and Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Band of Horses return for five final dates in late September and early October, culminating in a homecoming show in Franklin, Tennessee.
