Produced by Live Nation, the North America leg kicks off on September 10 at Cobb’s Comedy Club in San Francisco making stops across North America in Vancouver, Atlanta, Chicago and more before wrapping up in New York at The Gramercy Theatre on November 28.
“It seems being delusional is not so bad after all! My journey to stand-up comedy all started with a thought, until hard work and dedication made it a reality. Spreading laughter seems to be the only thing I’ve been consistently good at for all of my life. My life stories, my surroundings, and my people have influenced my stand-up comedy journey,” said Dale Elliott Jr. “Being a son to immigrant parents is not uncommon in Jamaica. As a Yardman, I will fly my country’s flag high wherever I go in North America this year – from Toronto to San Francisco, or Chicago to Maryland. This “Son of an Immigrant” will be coming soon to you. Nuh mek it miss yuh!”
After 8 years of being a household name in the Caribbean diaspora for his Instagram and Tik-Tok skits, began stand-up in 2023 with his “Problem Child: Bad Pickney Tour”. In 2024, headlined a self-produced “No Hard Feelings” tour with over 40+ shows across USA, UK, and Canada, with multiple sold-out performances.

Beck Announces Ride Lonesome Single & Tour
Yesterday, eight-time GRAMMY winner Beck unveiled the stunning new surprise single, “Ride Lonesome.”
Today, Beck follows that hypnotically sublime ballad with the announcement of the Ride Lonesome Tour, a 25-date trek stopping at some of North America’s most renowned theaters and amphitheaters.
The Ride Lonesome Tour, promoted by Live Nation, will kick off September 16 at Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre, with stops including the Santa Barbara Bowl, the Greek in L.A., Red Rocks, two nights each at The Masonic in SF, Massey Hall in Toronto and the Brooklyn Paramount, and more, before concluding October 31 at The Truth in Nashville.
Tickets for Beck’s Ride Lonesome Tour go on sale Friday, April 24 at 10am local time. For further information, go to Beck.com.
Produced by Beck and Mixed by Nigel Godrich, the song “Ride Lonesome” evokes the beautiful and haunting sonic landscapes and textures of 2015 Album of the Year GRAMMY winner Morning Phase and its spiritual predecessor, 2002’s classic Sea Change—and features multiple musicians who played on those milestone releases. From the resonant acoustic guitar strains of its opening to the emotional peaks of its final chorus, this long-awaited new original composition is the first indication of a different yet familiar direction for Beck in the year ahead.
Citi is the official card of the Beck: Ride Lonesome Tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, April 21 at 11am local time until Thursday, April 23 at 10pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program.
