Elderbrook books Ozark Music Hall for a March stop on the 'Heart on a Wire' tour

Fayetteville lands between Indianapolis and Red Rocks on Elderbrook's 2027 run behind a new album, with Arlo and Rules opening on Wednesday, March 31.

Look at where Fayetteville falls on Elderbrook's 2027 tour map and it tells you something: one night after Indianapolis, three nights before Red Rocks. Northwest Arkansas gets its turn on Wednesday, March 31, 2027, when the Heart on a Wire Tour pulls into Ozark Music Hall with Arlo and Rules opening.

The date went public on October 20, and the clock is already running. Presales started that day and the general on-sale opened Friday, October 23 at 10 a.m. local time. In Fayetteville, tickets go through Prekindle, the venue's ticketing partner. Plan on buying online. Ozark Music Hall's FAQ says the box office only opens on show days, when doors open, and only sells what's left. For a Wednesday show months out, the safe bet is to buy now, not to hope for walk-up tickets in March.

The tour is built around *Heart on a Wire*, Elderbrook's fourth studio album, due January 22, 2027 on Counter Records, a Ninja Tune label, according to the album announcement. So the Fayetteville crowd will hear the new songs about ten weeks after release. That's long enough for people to know the words, and early enough that the live versions still feel new.

The first leg opens March 18 in Ottawa and works through Montreal, South Burlington, Vermont, Portland, Maine, Boston and Philadelphia before heading west. Ticketing listings also show a March 30 date at Old National Centre in Indianapolis, the night before Fayetteville. Then comes the big one: Red Rocks Amphitheatre on April 3, where Mindchatter joins the bill. Arlo and Rules are confirmed as support across the tour, so Fayetteville gets the full package.

Fayetteville gets the same bill that heads to Red Rocks three nights later.

The room matters here too. Ozark Music Hall, formerly JJ's Live, sits at 3615 N. Steele Blvd. and is billed by the venue at more than 2,000 capacity, with a 17-by-10-foot LED video wall behind the stage. That's a big screen for a big-room electronic show. It's also a long way from a laptop on a folding table, and it's the kind of production this music is built for.

It also says something about how the hall is booking. The venue's Prekindle calendar has run from Jesse Welles in March to Big K.R.I.T. in June, then Houndmouth and Ashley McBryde within ten days of each other this month. An EDM headliner with a new record and a Red Rocks date the same week fits a room that clearly wants to be the region's catch-all big stage.

Elderbrook doesn't bring this kind of tour through Northwest Arkansas often, and Fayetteville landed a slot in the middle of the most important week of the run. Mark the Wednesday. Then pull up the album in January and give it a few weeks before the doors open on Steele.
