(NEWARK, NJ) -- Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Conan Gray has announced his 2026 Wishbone World Tour with special guest Esha Tewari, in support of his critically acclaimed fourth studio album Wishbone (Republic Records). The 42-city global run kicks off in February and includes shows at Prudential Center in Newark on Friday, February 27, the UBS Arena in Belmont Park, NY on Saturday, February 28, and Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, PA on Monday, March 2, 2026.

The tour will showcase support from rising pop artist Esha Tewari across all dates. North American stops include Toronto, Boston, New York, Los Angeles, and more before heading to Europe in May for shows in Dublin, London, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, and beyond. The tour concludes this fall with arena performances in Australia and New Zealand, wrapping October 8 at RAC Arena in Perth.

The announcement follows Conan’s record-breaking year with Wishbone, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Album Sales chart and Top 3 on the Billboard 200 — marking the highest chart debut and biggest sales week of his career. Earlier this year, Conan completed The Wishbone Pajama Show Tour, playing sold-out venues across the U.S. and Mexico, including a landmark debut at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and his first-ever headline shows in Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey.

Nobody has tapped into the thoughts and feelings of his generation quite like Conan Gray. The Texas native has transformed into the quintessential Gen Z singer-songwriter and pop artist by never losing sight of where he came from and designing a world without comparison. Conan turns the page to his next chapter with his fourth studio album, Wishbone, released on August 15th, 2025. Continuing a partnership that dates back to 2018, he welcomed GRAMMY® Award winner Dan Nigro back as Executive Producer for the album, along with producers Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd.

Conan left an indelible imprint on pop culture in 2020 when his debut LP Kid Krow, produced by Dan Nigro, bowed at #5 on the Billboard 200. Kid Krow went Platinum and yielded a series of signature smashes, including the 4x-Platinum “Heather,” 3x-Platinum “Maniac,” Gold-Certified “Comfort Crowd,” “The Story,” “Wish You Were Sober,” and “The Cut That Always Bleeds.” Among these staples, he entered rarified air with “Heather”, which has become one of a handful of songs with 2 billion streams penned by one writer – Conan himself.

With over 12 billion global streams to date, Conan returned to the Top 15 of the Billboard 200 with Superache (2022), Found Heaven (2024), and Wishbone (2025). He has incited the applause of The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GQ, V Man, PAPER, The FADER, Billboard, and NPR in addition to performing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, TODAY, and more. In 2024, Conan took flight as an arena headliner, selling out hallowed venues around the world such as Madison Square Garden, the Kia Forum, and Wembley Arena. A fixture at events like the Met Gala, he is just as uncompromisingly influential as a style icon, embracing a fashion-forward aesthetic like no other. Beyond thriving as a songwriter and performer, Conan also serves as the core creative director for his project, meticulously shaping every layer of his vision for each album era. He continues this trend on Wishbone – 12 self-written songs from a world all his own.

Esha Tewari is a 19-year-old alternative singer-songwriter who has rapidly ascended from her bedroom recordings to international acclaim. Esha grew into the spotlight, attracting her Gen Z cult-like fanbase through hauntingly emotional, heartfelt writing and ear-worm melodies. With millions of active fans known as the 'Tewarians,' Esha connects with her audience at a personal level, like ripping out a page from their diary, resonating deeply with her audience world wide.

Her breakthrough came in 2024 when debut single "with ease" gained traction on TikTok, followed by her iconic voice-memo track "beautiful boy" which grabbed the attention of her earliest fans, saying everything they wanted to say but couldn’t. In January 2025, she released her viral single "you were mine," from her third EP “wraith” garnering praise from her fanbase and the independent music community. She spent the rest of 2025 touring the US and Australia with 18 dates in her North American tour, and sold out all 12 shows in Australian metro cities. Her North American tour included sold-out performances at iconic venues such as Chicago's Lincoln Hall, LA’s Lodge room, and the Bowery Ballroom, paving a promising path for her exciting future.
