The Return of the High-Flying Vocalist: Benson Boone Hits the Road Again
Just a few months after conquering stages worldwide and leaving audiences breathless with his soaring vocals and athletic stage presence, Benson Boone is officially returning to the road. The pop sensation, who skyrocketed to global stardom with the 2024 smash hit “Beautiful Things”, has announced his upcoming “Wanted Man” tour.
While fans are eager to witness his high-energy performances, the new tour itinerary has sparked a wave of conversation online—particularly in the Beehive State.
The Utah Connection: A Bittersweet Omission
For those who have followed Benson Boone’s rise, his bond with Utah is legendary. From filming the music videos for “Beautiful Things” and “Mr. Electric Blue” in the state to owning a home overlooking Utah Lake, Boone has deep roots in the area. In fact, his first-ever arena performance took place at the Maverik Center in West Valley City.
Last fall, the “American Heart” tour saw an unprecedented response in Salt Lake City, where Boone sold out three consecutive nights at the Delta Center. Those shows were a spectacle of red, white, and blue confetti, pyrotechnics, a floating chandelier, and his trademark acrobatic flips. However, in a surprising turn of events, Utah is noticeably absent from the “Wanted Man” tour dates, leaving many local fans questioning why their favorite star is skipping the city this time around.
What to Expect from the ‘Wanted Man’ Tour
Starting on July 7 and running through early September, the “Wanted Man” tour is named after one of the standout tracks from his second album, American Heart. While fans are hopeful for a new album announcement, Boone is currently celebrating the success of American Heart, which impressively peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart.
