AJ McLean to Extend THE BETTER MAN TOUR Into February

Multi-platinum recording artist Alexander James McLean has announced a new round of dates for The Better Man Tour, extending his first North American solo tour into February 2027. The newly announced run kicks off January 12 at Grand Theatre Center for the Arts in Tracy, CA and will bring the tour through the Pacific Northwest & the South before returning to California to wrap up this leg in San Diego at the House of Blues on February 5th. Full schedule below, with pre-sales starting tomorrow and all ticket sales starting Friday at ajmclean.com.

The new dates follow the previously announced fall leg of The Better Man Tour, which kicks off this October and brings McLean's latest music to audiences across the country, while celebrating the music and moments that have defined his career.

'I'm just really excited to get out there and do this,' says McLean. 'We've been putting a lot into this show and it's going to be a really fun one. New music, a full band, some songs people definitely know and probably a few surprises. The fact that we're already adding more dates is amazing. I'm just ready to get on the road and see everybody.'

The expanded tour comes as McLean prepares for the release of his newly announced LP, 'Sex, Love & Music', arriving Black Friday, November 27, 2026. The album's first single, 'Into Your Heart,' is out now alongside its official music video.

Following the release of his debut solo album 'My Name Is Alexander James' earlier this year, McLean continues to step forward as AJ McLean is Alexander James, embracing a new creative chapter rooted in artistic freedom and a body of work that continues to evolve.
