Rock mainstays The Black Crowes and Whiskey Myers will bring their co-headlining Southern Hospitality Tour to Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater on June 17, 2026, delivering a high-powered night of Southern-leaning rock with opener Southall.

The Bridgeport stop is part of a 40-plus-city tour pairing two bands known for road-tested swagger and no-frills live shows. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, Feb. 6, at 10 a.m., following a series of presales that begin Tuesday, Feb. 3.

Fans who sign up for the artist presale, powered by Seated, will unlock an exclusive new recording by The Black Crowes and Whiskey Myers, produced by Grammy winner Jay Joyce. Presales also include Citi and Mastercard options before tickets open broadly via Live Nation.

The announcement comes as The Black Crowes release “It’s Like That,” a new track featured in ESPN on ABC’s NHL campaign, ahead of their upcoming album A Pound of Feathers, due out March 13. The band is riding renewed momentum after a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Album for Happiness Bastards and their first nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

On the same bill, Whiskey Myers will showcase material spanning their catalog, including songs from Whomp Whack Thunder, an album praised for its sharpened songwriting and raw, unpolished edge. The multi-platinum independent band has built a reputation for explosive performances and a fiercely loyal fan base.

The Southern Hospitality Tour promises thunderous drums, blistering guitar work and setlists packed with career-defining anthems, deep cuts and crowd-ready singalongs. When the tour reaches Bridgeport this summer, fans can expect a full-throttle reminder that rock ’n’ roll is still best served loud, gritty and unapologetic.
