Big Thief at Ryman Auditorium

Somersault Slide 360 Tour

Indie Rock fans will enjoy Big Thief performing at the famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee on Saturday, August 22nd, 2026. Brooklyn-based indie rock quartet Big Thief will deliver an amazing evening of music in one of America’s most beloved halls while bringing their own brand of energy to the very special venue. The show will feature Adrianne Lenker’s heartfelt vocals and the band’s intricate and lush instrumentation in an intimate setting. Big Thief will be touring in support of their latest release of music, and fans can expect to hear a wide range of songs from their extensive catalog as well as their newer material.

Big Thief music evolution

Big Thief will play all songs from “Not” plus singles “Tunnel Vision,” “Red Moon,” “Shark Smile” and “Mary” from their subsequent releases. In addition to the songs from “Not,” the Brooklyn quartet will include songs from their 2022 20 track release “Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You”. We recommend purchasing tickets for this show early because Big Thief has received a lot of critical acclaim and they have been nominated for a number of Grammys in addition to making a number of “best of” year end lists. As with their previous live performances their intricate arrangements and Adrianne Lenker’s poignant lyrics are truly best experienced live and in person, as they have a depth that cannot be translated to CD or vinyl.
