American singer-songwriter, Role Model, has just announced tour dates in the UK and Ireland as a part of his forthcoming Chuck on Tour. Setting off in September 2026 and continuing through February 2027, the world tour will support Role Model’s album, ‘Chuck Timely & The Hourglass.’
Chuck on Tour will spend its first leg in North America, seeing dates in Seattle, Vancouver, Chicago, Washington D.C., New York, Los Angeles and more. Role Model then arrives in Europe on 11 February. He will play nights in Berlin, Amsterdam, Brussels, Düsseldorf, and Paris on the European leg. Finally, two massive dates make up the UK/IE leg. 22 February will see Role Model at Dublin’s 3Arena. And two days later (24 February), he will spend a night at London’s OVO Wembley Arena.
The North American leg will be supported by Samia. And Keni Titus, American singer-songwriter, will support the UK/IE and European legs.
Role Model’s (real name, Tucker Pillsbury) third album, ‘Chuck Timely & The Hourglass’ releases on 7 August via Interscope. It’s lead single, ‘High Hopes 3000’ has been released. Clash calls the track “a colourful pop feast” and DIY says the song “is an earworm hoedown that sees him balance romantic cynicism with a yearning for connection.’ See the music video below.
Pillsbury released his second album, ‘Kansas Anymore’ in 2024. On it, the singer departed from his bedroom pop and alternative beginnings, and leaned into country and folk influences to great acclaim. DIY gave the album an four stars calling “a record ostensibly about heartbreak and homesickness,” “so overwhelmingly fun” and that it, “[uses] both genre and trope in parallel ways with just the right level of self-awareness and humour along the way.”
The runaway single of the project was ‘Sally, When the Wine Runs Out.’ The track was from the deluxe version of the LP, ‘Kansas Anymore (The Longest Goodbye).’ The jaunty dance number laden with twangy guitars is perhaps most well known for its bridge. During live performances, a tradition has emerged in which Pillsbury beckons, “Where’s my Sally tonight?” before a guest joins him on stage to perform the rest of the song. Notable guests have included Charli XCX (on SNL US), Lewis Capaldi, Niall Horan and Olivia Rodrigo.
Before heading on tour, Role Model will make summer appearances at Reading & Leeds Festivals as well as at Ireland’s Electric Picnic.
