Kaleo Announce North American Payback Tour

04-29-2024

(EMG) Kaleo have announced their North American "Payback Tour," which will see the group headlining amphitheaters across the continent through the fall. The newly announced dates kick off at Hayden Homes Amphitheatre in Bend, OR on August 25th and run through the middle of October.

The upcoming run will feature support from Chance Pe-a, Hembree and Larkin Poe on select dates with additional support to be announced in the coming weeks. Ticket presales for the newly announced dates begin tomorrow, Tuesday, April 30th at 10am local time, with general on-sale starting this Friday, May 3rd at 10am local.

Just last week, Kaleo was announced as direct support for The Rolling Stones show at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA on June 11th, as part of their Stones Tour '24 Hackney Diamonds. Immediately following KALEO will embark on a run of headline dates starting at Dillon Amphitheatre in Dillon, CO on June 14th, followed by a sold-out performance at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO on June 16th. The previously announced summer trek will feature support from Matt Maeson, Vincent Lima, Neal Francis, and Reignwolf on select dates, and is set to visit major markets on the West Coast, wrapping up in Carnation, WA at Remlinger Farms on June 26th.

Last month, Kaleo returned with their new single "Lonely Cowboy" which is available on all streaming platforms and joined by a stunning performance video shot inside Rome's Historic Colosseum. The standalone track notably marks the group's first new original music in three years.

"Lonely Cowboy" hinges on a softly plucked acoustic guitar and sparse orchestration, while gruff, yet warm vocals remain the guiding force. "Guess it's time to say goodbye to the rider of the night" sings vocalist, guitarist, pianist, songwriter, and producer JJ Julius Son as he paints a vivid picture underscored by a proud and intentional homage to Ennio Morricone.

JJ commented on the song sharing, "It feels like a Spaghetti Western, and I love those vibes. My friends and family have always encouraged me to put it out, but now was the right time. It's an important one for me."

KALEO recently celebrated their 10th anniversary by delivering a stunning live performance before 250 of their biggest fans at the Archeological Park of the Colosseum, Rome, and in the shadow of the world-famous amphitheater. With the performance, KALEO joined the ranks of Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, The Cure, Elton John, and Paul McCartney as the only artists to ever perform an electric concert in front of the iconic monument. Presented by VERTIGO LIVE, a leading producer of cinematic live experiences, the momentous night was captured on film and will be released as KALEO: Viva Roma in the Shadow of the Colosseum later this summer.
