Stephen Wilson Jr. Adds New Dates to Sold-Out 'Gary The Torch Tour'
General on-sale begins this Friday, March 20, at 10:00 am local time.
Stephen Wilson Jr. has announced the second leg of his Gary The Torch Tour, adding West Coast, Southeast and EU/UK dates to the sold-out tour that kicked off earlier this month. Pre-sale signup for the US and EU/UK tour is available now, with general on-sale beginning this Friday, March 20, at 10:00 am local time.
New dates include shows in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Atlanta, Birmingham, and his hometown of Nashville TN at The Truth on December 11, 2026. He also announced a run of EU/UK dates that will kick off on October 15 in Belfast, Ireland and make stops in London, Paris, Copenhagen, Oslo and more.
On March 6, Wilson Jr. kicked off his entirely sold-out Gary The Torch Tour, which will make upcoming stops in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Denver, Chicago and more. He will also support Dave Matthews Band on September 4 at the Gorge Amphitheater and Brandi Carlile on September 11-13 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Wilson Jr. recently released the official video for his latest single “Gary,” directed by Tim Cofield, and starring the award-winning actor Gary Sinise (Forrest Gump, Apollo 13). The video arrived earlier this week on the anniversary of the passing of a teenager named Gary, who helped inspire Wilson Jr. to write the song when he came across a roadside memorial in his name. Watch it below.
