Billy Bob Thornton & The Boxmasters "2026 Morro Rock Tour"

Billy Bob Thornton, also known as Bud Thornton, and his band The Boxmasters bring their "2026 Morro Rock Tour" to the Lincoln Theatre DC on Thursday, July 23, 2026, joined by opening act Fran Moran and the Nervous Wrecks. The Boxmasters are touring in support of their twenty-first album *In The Bay*, a collection of songs inspired by the coastal town of Morro Bay, California, and heavily influenced by the sounds of The Beach Boys and other 1960s pop and rock acts. The band, formed in 2006, has built a loyal following through relentless touring and a catalogue that nods to The Beatles, The Byrds, The Mothers of Invention, and many others; they recently opened for The Who on their farewell tour. This Lincoln Theatre date is one of many stops across the United States, running from mid-June into early August 2026.
