Carson McHone returns to the UK and Europe for the first time since releasing her new LP, the critically acclaimed Pentimento, via Merge Records.
Pentimento finds McHone on the frontier of her musical imagination, channeling motifs as diverse as guitar rock, pastoral folk, poetry, field recordings, visual art, memory, family, landscape, into her most profound effort to date. Written in the Texas desert and recorded on the Canadian coast, the album is a layered compilation examining life’s shifting circumstances and the disquiet of the world at large.
Between extensive North American tours as a member of the Canadian rock ‘n’ roll group, Daniel Romano’s Outfit, McHone will make a trip across the pond late this summer 2026 for a string of headline UK/Euro dates in August/September, with a stop at End of the Road Festival. Collaboration being at the forefront of McHone’s practice these days, she’s teaming up with past tour pal, Max Kinghorn-Mills, to build a band for this tour featuring members of his own Hollow Hand band, plus three performances as a trio with Kinghorn-Mills and multi-disciplinary artist, Fliss Horrocks. Find full dates below, including bills with Sister Wives, Birds Flying Backwards, Bee Positaives, and fellow native Texans Little Mazarn and Garrett T. Capps.
