Genre-blurring alt artist Bilmuri will bring his 2026 “Kinda Hard Tour” to The Rooftop at Pier 17 (89 South St Pier 17, New York, NY 10038) on May 15, marking one of the New York City stops on his largest headlining run to date.
The 18-city North American tour, promoted by Live Nation, follows the release of Bilmuri’s latest single, “Hard2Tell,” which arrived earlier this month via Columbia Records. The track was accompanied by a high-adrenaline music video shot in Columbus, Ohio, and directed by longtime collaborator Ned Ingalls. The visual leans into gritty, “Fast & Furious”-style action, complete with drift cars and explosive sequences.
Bilmuri, the musical project of Johnny Franck, has built a reputation for blending country, post-hardcore, punk and experimental pop into a singular sound that has cultivated a devoted global fan base. Known for high-energy live shows and constant sonic experimentation, he is currently on tour with Bad Omens in the U.K. and Europe through Dec. 13.
The “Kinda Hard Tour” kicks off April 17 in Denver and includes stops in Los Angeles, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston and Toronto before wrapping May 17 at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston. The May 15 Manhattan show places Bilmuri on one of the city’s most popular waterfront stages as anticipation builds for new music expected in 2026.
Tickets are on sale now via livenation.com.
