Beck brings the Ride Lonesome Tour to Vancouver
Beck announced the Ride Lonesome Tour in the spring of 2026 alongside a surprise single of the same name, and the original itinerary put Vancouver first: the Queen Elizabeth Theatre was to get opening night before the roughly 25-date North American run continued to cities including Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston and Brooklyn. Production issues changed that. The tour now opens September 22 at the Santa Barbara Bowl, and the three rescheduled West Coast dates close it out in November instead.
Few catalogs are as restless as Beck's. Since breaking through in the 1990s with "Loser," the Los Angeles songwriter has zig-zagged from lo-fi folk to the genre-splicing collage of Odelay, from the neon funk of Midnite Vultures to the hushed heartbreak of Sea Change. In 2015 his introspective Morning Phase won the Grammy for Album of the Year, cementing him as one of alternative music's most inventive and enduring figures.
The single "Ride Lonesome" points back toward that quieter, widescreen side of his work, and the album it introduced is his first collection of new songs since 2019's Hyperspace. He cut it at United Studios in Hollywood with musicians who played on Mutations, Sea Change and Morning Phase, which is a strong signal for the mood of the live show. It follows Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime, a 2026 collection of rarities, covers and soundtrack cuts that rounded up the corners of his catalog.
The Queen Elizabeth Theatre is an ideal room for this material - a seated, acoustically rich hall that rewards dynamics and detail rather than sheer volume. The November slot has its own advantage: by then the band will have close to two dozen shows behind them and the record will have been out for well over a month, so expect a settled, career-spanning set rather than a first-night one.
