Hail The Sun’s 2026 U.S. Tour
This tour arrives less than a year after the release of cut. turn. fade. back., which dropped on Oct. 24, 2025, via Equal Vision Records. The album explores the cycle of life, loss and renewal, themes that have defined much of Hail The Sun’s work since forming in Chico, California, in 2009.
Frontman Donovan Melero, who handles vocals while remaining deeply involved in the band’s creative direction, previously explained that the group’s goal is to make listeners think rather than hand them easy answers. After 15 years together, Hail The Sun continues to reshape their sound without losing the technical edge that helped build their loyal following.
Fans can expect a setlist centered on new tracks like “The Drooling Class,” “Insensitive Tempo” and “War Crimes,” alongside older fan favorites known for their fast tempo shifts and emotional delivery.
Venues on the route include The Wiltern in Los Angeles, Irving Plaza in New York City and House of Blues locations across multiple states.
Support for the tour is stacked, starting with Foxy Shazam, who will appear on every date. Known for their theatrical energy and genre-bending rock sound, Foxy Shazam adds a contrasting edge that broadens the appeal of the lineup.
Joining on select dates are Lady Radiator, Makari, Mella and Resilia, each bringing their own style into the mix.
The tour schedule spans 29 cities, including stops in Texas, Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Colorado, Utah and Nevada, before looping back through California. Tickets are already available, including general admission and VIP options.With five supporting performers and a coast-to-coast route, the Cut. Tour. Fade. Back. run stands as one of the most notable post-hardcore tours of spring 2026.
