The Funeral Portrait Announce “A Hex on the Nation Tour”
THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT are ready to cast a spell across the country. The acclaimed Atlanta-based alternative rock collective have announced their A HEX ON THE NATION TOUR, a new headline run kicking off March 2 in Asheville, NC, and wrapping March 28 in Nashville, TN. The tour will bring the band’s explosive live show, theatrical sensibilities, and unmistakable brand of genre-defying rock to fans across the country. Special guests on the tour will include Archers, Creeper, If Not For Me, and FKA Rayne across all dates.
The announcement arrives as THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT continue their ascent as one of modern rock’s most compelling and distinctive forces. Last week the band unveiled their brand-new track, “My Future Prediction.” Their acclaimed album, Greetings From Suffocate City, has surpassed 100 million total streams, powered by the fan-favorite anthems “Suffocate City” (feat. Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills) and “Holy Water” (feat. Ivan Moody of Five Finger Death Punch). With The Funeral Portrait’s latest track the band continues to expand the world of Suffocate City and fuel the devotion of its ever-growing Coffin Crew.
Promoted by Live Nation, the A HEX ON THE NATION tour promises to bring that world to life night after night, with frontman Lee Jennings and the band delivering the high-energy performances, otherworldly spectacle, and undeniable connection with fans that have become their calling card. With a rapidly expanding audience and a growing presence on the global rock stage, THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT are making it clear that the next chapter is theirs to write.

Stray Kids Announce 2027 World Tour ‘RUN IT’ Across North America, Europe and the UK
Global superstars Stray Kids today announced their highly anticipated 2027 World Tour ‘RUN IT,’ featuring stadium shows across North America, Europe and the UK next year. The tour kicks off Sunday, May 16 at Lumen Field in Seattle before continuing to Vancouver, Santa Clara, San Diego, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, East Rutherford, Paris, London, Munich, Barcelona and more, finally wrapping next summer at San Siro Stadium in Milan.
As previously announced, Lee Know will not participate in the North American and European legs of the tour as he will begin his mandatory military service ahead of those dates. While he fulfills his service, the remaining seven members will continue the tour, bringing the full-scale Stray Kids live experience to fans around the world.
The announcement follows Stray Kids’ recent series of special ‘STRAYCITY’ performances across Latin America this fall, which brought the group to Buenos Aires, Bogotá and Mexico City, with support from NEXZ, Bad Milk, Kei Linch, K4OS, Cocho, Andrés Obregón and RENEE, with lineups varying by city. The group also headlined Rock in Rio, making history as both the first K-pop act to headline the festival and the first K-pop act ever to perform at the event.
These milestones build on Stray Kids’ headline appearances at BST Hyde Park in London and Lollapalooza Chicago in 2024, and their record-breaking Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE> that ended in 2025. The tour spanned 56 shows across 35 regions and played iconic venues around the world, including sold out multi-night runs at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Citi Field in New York, Globe Life Field in Arlington, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, and Stade de France in Paris.
Stray Kids World Tour ‘RUN IT’ supports the group’s latest release, THIS & THAT, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. With this milestone, Stray Kids became the first act in history to debut their first nine charting albums at No. 1. This achievement further extended their record as the K-pop act with the most No. 1 albums in Billboard 200 history, as well as the group with the most Billboard 200 No. 1 albums of the 21st century.
In 2026, Stray Kids also earned six new RIAA certifications across their catalog, including Platinum certification for “God’s Menu” and Gold certifications for KARMA, “LALALALA,” “Chk Chk Boom,” “S-Class” and “CASE 143,” further cementing their position as one of the leading forces in global music.
