St. Paul and The Broken Bones bring their 2026 North American Tour to The Ritz in Raleigh on April 19, 2026, as part of a 28-date run that starts March 24 in Tulsa and closes May 9 in Charleston. The Birmingham, Alabama eight-piece are consistently described by critics as Southern soul, classic soul, and modern R&B with extensions into rock, psychedelia and funk, and this tour is built around their self-titled sixth studio album, St. Paul and The Broken Bones (2025), released on their own Oasis Pizza Records imprint and recorded at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals. The new record follows Angels in Science Fiction (2023) and earlier releases like Half the City and Young Sick Camellia, consolidating a decade-long catalog that has put them on stages at Coachella, Glastonbury, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and as openers for The Rolling Stones. Their profile also includes high-visibility appearances at events like Elton John’s Oscar party and benefit concerts for organizations such as Impact America and the Muscle Shoals Music Foundation, aligning the band with arts education and music-history preservation alongside their touring work.

Supporting in Raleigh is Brother Wallace, who joins the 2026 North American Tour as a newly signed ATO Records artist with a debut album slated for spring 2026. Critics frame his sound as modern soul and retro-leaning R&B grounded in church-trained vocals, Southern soul traditions and horn-forward arrangements, a profile that grew out of years singing and directing choirs in West Point, Georgia before stepping into a solo career. His 2025 debut single “Who’s That” is the first glance at that approach, setting up the full-length that will be in circulation by the time this tour hits The Ritz and positioning him as a new voice in contemporary soul rather than a nostalgia act. The tour places Brother Wallace in a run of major U.S. rooms from Charlotte, Asheville and Raleigh through Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Brooklyn, Boston, Toronto, Detroit, Chicago and more, giving him a national platform after a long stretch of work in education and gospel.
