Jake Lambert Books 2027 U.S. Dates for The Sunshine Kid Tour
British comic Jake Lambert has announced the U.S. leg of his The Sunshine Kid Tour for spring 2027, following sold-out shows across 20 countries.
British comedian Jake Lambert has announced the American leg of his The Sunshine Kid Tour for 2027, with the run set for spring. The tour is promoted by Outback Presents, and the news was first reported by Deadline in an exclusive in November 2026.
Lambert has built a growing international following as a rising stand-up. According to the reporting, his previous shows have sold out across 20 countries, including the United Kingdom, several European markets, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. The U.S. leg extends that run to American audiences, and a headlining show is already scheduled for November 13, a date that signals the first stop of the touring push is close at hand.
The move places Lambert among a cluster of artists mapping out large 2027 schedules at roughly the same time. Dirty Projectors' David Longstreth has also revealed a solo tour for next year, with shows spanning the United States and Europe in spring and summer. The band, now operating as a trio with Chris Bear and Karl McComas-Reichl, shared a new song called « Jumbotron » alongside the news, giving fans a fresh recording to attach to the announcement.
Rock also has a major touring story in the same window. The band Clutch has announced a 2027 headlining U.S. tour that begins February 27. Support will come from Corrosion of Conformity, Agnostic Front and Chuck Ragan, a bill that pairs the headliner with veteran punk and hardcore acts. The band released the single « Beware the Fever » ahead of its album Wasted Lands, due January 22, which gives the tour a recorded product to promote as it hits the road.
Comedy has another touring story this season. Nurse John, a Los Angeles stand-up and social media creator, will launch a 2027 tour in January. That run is the second leg of his « Against Medical Advice: Readmitted » show, following an earlier leg that sold more than 75,000 tickets. The tour opens in Arizona and runs through to Vancouver, offering a sense of the western routing that comedy tours of this scale tend to follow.
Taken together, these announcements show how live performance continues to anchor the careers of comics and musicians who build audiences first on tour and on social platforms. Full routing and additional dates for Lambert's U.S. leg have not been detailed in the available material, so fans should check official channels for ticket information as more cities are confirmed.
