Machine Gun Kelly is firing on all cylinders.
The genre-defying performer — also known as MGK and his given name Colson Baker — just announced he’s taking off on his ‘Lost Americana Tour’ that will send him all over the world in late 2025 as well as spring and summer 2026.
While out and about, he’ll headline not one, not two but three (!) New York and New Jersey concerts.
Up first, he’s slated to hit Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Saturday, Dec. 13. Then, come next year, the Grammy nominee swings into Holmdel, NJ’s PNC Bank Arts Center on Tuesday, June 9 and Buffalo’s Darien Lake Amphitheater on Saturday, June 13.
For the 2025 leg of the sprawling run, he’ll be joined by special guest Julia Wolf; in 2026, chart-topping rapper Wiz Khalifa will provide support.
Additional opening acts joining MGK on select dates include honestav, Beauty School Dropout, De’Wayne and Mod Sun.
“Dates and countries still being added don’t worry…but here’s part 1,” he shared via Instagram.
These arena and amphitheater shows come in support of the 35-year-old’s recently-released seventh studio album “Lost Americana,” which hit shelves in August.
“…this is the Cleveland rapper-singer’s ‘Nebraska’ but also his ‘Scarecrow,’ rooted in the perspective of a small-time kid who’s made it big and wonders what comes next,” Slant Magazine wrote in a review of the record.
“…’Lost Americana’ moves with the assuredness of an artist who’s wrestled with his demons, refined his tools, and emerged with something that commands attention on its own terms.”
In tandem with the record’s release, MGK performed a handful of pop-up concerts at small venues with names like Hey Hey Bar, Turner’s Bar, Shank Hall, Electric Fetus and Snap.
“You feel it in your soul,” fan Brianna Gibson said after the Electric Fetus show in Minneapolis, according to The Minnesota Star Tribune. “You couldn’t have a better experience.”

MGK set list
As noted above, Pete Davidson’s always-surprising friend — did you know he starred in a comedy called “Good Mourning”? — headlined at Minneapolis’ Electric Fetus on Aug. 14. Although he delivered an abbreviated set and will likely perform more songs on the tour, here’s what he took to the stage on that date, according to Set List FM.
01.) “roll the windows up”
02.) “miss sunshine”
03.) “tell me whats up”
04.) “jawbreaker”
05.) “goddamn”
06.) “Come Pick Me Up” (Ryan Adams cover)
07.) “god save me”
08.) “Candy”
09.) “27 / Rehab / Drunk face / Kiss the sky / cliché / Stay Away / love race”
10.) “vampire diaries”
MGK new music
On Aug. 8, the father to Megan Fox’s child dropped his seventh studio album “Lost Americana.”
Here, the Cleveland native embraces his love of classic rock out of the gate with the “Baba O’Riley”-inspired preamble to his album opener “outlaw overture.” The anthemic track takes a number of surprising left turns and ultimately ends up being more stripped-down and feel-good than rock and roll.
Elsewhere, the rap-rocker caught our attention with the hard-charging, fist-pumping “don’t wait run fast,” radio-friendly emo jam “vampire diaries” and surprising “starman,” which includes a nod to Third Eye Blind’s ’90s classic “Semi-Charmed Life.”
Make sure to stick around until the bitter end, too. “orpheus” is an emotional epic that reaches a gorgeously-composed, instrumental crescendo that likely won’t leave a dry eye in the house once the tour kicks off.
