Ryan Beatty - Arms Over Armor North American Tour '26

Ryan Beatty brings the *Arms Over Armor North American Tour ’26* to Lincoln Theatre DC. The concert supports *Sweet Fortune*, his fourth album, which explores new love, distance, artistic growth, and the challenge of describing real-life happiness without the metaphors of heartbreak. The album was developed with producer Ethan Gruska and includes a collaboration with Clairo, while its arrangements expand Beatty’s intimate voice-and-guitar or piano beginnings with carefully placed horns and strings.

Beatty’s music has evolved from pop songwriting and collaborations with artists including Brockhampton and Tyler, The Creator to quieter, more reflective albums such as *Calico*. He has also toured with Noah Kahan and Maggie Rogers and contributed to Beyoncé’s *Cowboy Carter*, earning an Album of the Year Grammy for his work on that record. *Sweet Fortune* continues his shift toward a cinematic, nocturnal sound, with songs including “Phantom,” “Secret Language,” “Delancey,” “White Lightning,” “Too Many Ways,” and “Virtuoso.” The album’s themes range from the exhilaration and vulnerability of new love to long-distance relationships, constant travel, and the difficulty of saying goodbye.
