Joshua Bassett: The Complicated Tour

originally published: 12/12/2022


Singer, songwriter, and actor Joshua Bassett has announced The Complicated Tour, his 2023 run in North America and Europe. The North American leg, produced by Live Nation and supported by Lindsey Lomis, kicks off at The Fillmore in San Francisco on March 7, then crisscrosses the continent before heading overseas. The European dates, supported by Stacey Ryan, begin in Hamburg, Germany on April 28 and wrap up at O2 Forum Kentish Town in London on May 9. 

Fans who had previously purchased tickets to Joshua Bassett’s 2022 canceled shows in San Francisco, San Diego, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., and Boston will receive messages with exclusive presale access to purchase tickets first in their city. The Original Buyers Presale will take place on December 12 at 12:00pm local time. Artist Presale will go live on December 13 at 10am local time, with public on-sale following on December 16 at 10:00am local time.  

The big announcement comes just weeks after the young crooner delighted fans by dropping four surprise tracks in October, each arriving a week apart. Heartfelt and bruisingly honest, “Different,” “would you love me now?,” “SHE SAID HE SAID SHE SAID,” and“i’m sorry” all captured different aspects of Bassett’s artistry — highlighting his vocal talent, versatility and impressive songwriting chops. 

That quartet of singles capped an extraordinary year for Bassett, which included the arrival of his critically acclaimed Sad Songs in a Hotel Room EP, making his feature film debut in Disney+’s Better Nate Than Ever, and starring in the Disney+ animated film Night at the Museum: Kahmunrah Rises Again. 

Recently, the rising star performed “Smoke Slow” on Today and played sold-out shows at New York’s iconic Bowery Ballroom and The Troubadour in Los Angeles. Now, Bassett is ready to hit the road and share his music coast to coast.
