We’re so excited, we’re doing backflips.
After headlining at Coachella and serving as the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live,” Benson Boone officially announced his forthcoming ‘American Heart Tour.’
The nationwide arena trek comes in support of his new album, “American Heart,” which hits shelves on June 20. As of now, the mustachioed 22-year-old’s only released two singles — “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else” and “Mystical Magical” — both of which he performed on “SNL.”
While on the road, the “Beautiful Things” singer will make a single Big Apple stop when he drops into NYC’s Madison Square Garden on Friday, Sept. 5.
However, that’s not the only New York action he has planned this year.
Prior to the tour, Boone will take the stage at Canandaigua’s Constellation Brands Performing Arts Center on Thursday, June 5. The next night, he swings into Queens’ annual Governor’s Ball for a set. Other big names on this year’s bill include Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler, The Creator and Hozier among others.

Benson Boone new music
As noted above, Boone has released two singles ahead of the June 20 release of “American Heart.”
First up, he dropped the sleek, hard-charging “Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else,” which we’d argue is destined to be a fan favorite at live shows. The singalong chorus and hair-raising tempo changes are sure to get even the most stone-faced concertgoer bopping along in no time. We know they worked on us.
Then, in late April, the Washington State native unveiled the dreamy ’70s throwback “Mystical Magical.” Its honey-dripped vocals mixed with twinkly, deceptively simple piano builds to an Electric Light Orchestra-like falsetto crescendo that snaps the laid-back tune into sharp focus. For our money, this is pop rock at its finest. Catchy, lightweight and incredibly danceable. We’re fully onboard.
For a sneak peek at what these songs sound like live, you can see Boone’s performance of both tracks on “SNL” below.
