Judah & The Lion close 'The Boys Are Back Tour' at home, Friday at The Pinnacle

After 38 dates behind 'I Am A Prism,' the band ends the run where it plays more than anywhere else: Nashville.

Eight weeks ago Judah & The Lion started a tour in Knoxville. On Friday they finish it in Nashville, which is where this band has always ended up.

Judah & The Lion play The Pinnacle on Friday, Nov. 13. Doors are at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are through AXS. The Pinnacle holds about 4,500, a big room for a hometown homecoming. It's the last night of the run, and it comes the night after Atlanta, so the band rolls in with the whole tour behind it.

The run is The Boys Are Back Tour, a 38-date North American trip that opened Sept. 17 at The Mill & Mine in Knoxville and closes with this hometown show, per JamBase and The Music Universe. Along the way it hit Dallas, Los Angeles, Denver, Toronto, New York, Boston and Atlanta. Ending in Nashville wasn't an accident. This is the city the band plays more than any other in our records.

A 38-date run that ends where the band plays more than anywhere else.

The tour is behind I Am A Prism, the band's sixth studio album, a 12-track record released Aug. 14 on Dualtone Records, according to Shore Fire Media. It's the follow-up to 2024's *The Process*. The band teased it over a long run of singles: "Maybe The Best Is Now" led things off, "Miracle" arrived June 24 and was pitched as an anthem about finding beauty in little moments, and "As The Crow" and "Gravel Roads" followed as a double preview in July.

That means Friday's crowd will know the new songs by now. The album has had three months to sink in, the band has had eight weeks to sharpen the live versions, and a final night at home is when bands tend to throw in the extras: the deeper cuts, the longer set, the moment to thank the people who were there first.

The tour name says a lot, too. "The Boys Are Back" reads like a band glad to be on the road together again, and a closing show in its home city is the right place to say so.

A few practical notes. With doors at 7 and music at 8, give yourself time to get downtown, park or get dropped off, and get inside. In a room this size, the floor fills early on a Friday. Buy through the AXS link above rather than a resale site, and check what's allowed in before you go.

Nashville has watched this band for a long time, through every album and every return home. Friday puts a new record and a full tour's worth of momentum in front of the city that knows them best. Show up early, sing along to the new ones, and help them close it out right.
