Brian Fallon & The Painkillers Announce Extensive 2026 World Tour
Brian Fallon has officially announced a comprehensive headline tour for 2026, spanning the UK, Europe, and North America. The frontman of The Gaslight Anthem will be joined by his backing band, The Painkillers, to perform tracks from his highly anticipated new solo album, ‘Not Bad For New Jersey’, which is set for release on September 10 via his own label, Lesser Known Records.
The tour is scheduled to commence in Brooklyn, New York, on September 10, with a series of North American dates following throughout September and October, including stops in Toronto, Detroit, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Austin, and Philadelphia.
Following the North American leg, Fallon will head to Europe in early November for performances in Cologne, Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, Antwerp, and Amsterdam. The UK and Ireland portion of the tour begins on November 10 at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, followed by shows in Manchester, Dublin, and Glasgow.
Regarding the upcoming shows, Fallon shared his enthusiasm on social media: “I love you! Please buy my tickets so I can feel good when my friends tell me about other shows they went to that were less good than these will be.”
The tour will feature support from a rotating cast of artists, including Emily Wolfe, Dave Hause, Donovan Woods, Ben Nichols, Tim Barry, and Chris Farren. Tickets go on general sale on June 26, with a pre-sale opportunity available for fans on June 23.
‘Not Bad For New Jersey’ marks Fallon’s first original solo album in over five years and features guest appearances from Brandon Flowers, Phil Collen of Def Leppard, and Marc Ribot. The project has already been teased with the release of singles ‘Pearls’, ‘Better Before’, and the title track.
