Will it come to Utah? – Deseret News
Just just a few months after wrapping an enormous world tour that included three sold-out shows in Salt Lake City, Benson Boone is heading again out on the street.
This time, although, it appears he’ll be excluding Utah from his high-soaring vocals and flips.
Benson Boone proclaims ‘Wanted Man’ tour
Just this previous fall, Boone, who catapulted to fame with the monster hit “Beautiful Things” in 2024, introduced an eventful present celebrating his “American Heart” album to the Delta Center — 3 times.
The manufacturing included purple, white and blue coronary heart confetti, pyro, an enormous floating chandelier, three outfit modifications, a T-shirt cannon capturing out a signed shirt with a canopy tune to carry out and a grand complete of seven flips.
“This is the only city we’re playing multiple nights in a row,” Boone instructed his cheering Salt Lake City crowd with a way of awe and gratitude on the primary evening. “We’re playing three — you guys sold out three! Come on, that’s ridiculous! I love you guys, thank you so much.”
During the following evening’s present, Boone obtained — and immediately put on — a quilted vest from megafan Chelsea Porter that he wore for the remainder of the present (till an outfit change for the encore).
The celebrity then jumped off the stage searching for Porter within the crowd and gave her a hug.
The ties between Boone and Utah are robust — the music video for “Beautiful Things“and for”Mr. Electric Blue“were filmed in the state; and his first-ever arena show was at the Maverik Center in West Valley City.
The singer also has a home overlooking Utah Lake, per a profile in Rolling Stone magazine.
But now, as Boone prepares to go on his new “Wanted Man” tour, Utah will not be a part of the enjoyable.
The tour, which starts July 7 and extends through early September, has a few repeat cities from the “American Heart” tour — including Denver, Boston, Baltimore, Seattle, Portland and Los Angeles.
A few fans on Boone’s Instagram post with the tour dates noted their surprise that Salt Lake City was absent from the list, considering its popularity in the area.
But for the most part, Boone’s upcoming tour is taking on cities in the US he didn’t visit last time. Tour stops include Pittsburgh, Brooklyn, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Tulsa, Spokane, San Jose, San Antonio, Little Rock and Casper, Wyoming.
So is Benson Boone releasing new music?
Although launching a new tour often comes with new music, Boone has not yet announced a new album. The title of the tour, “Wanted Man,” is a song off his second album, “American Heart,” which he released last summer.
The album reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart.
