Pre Show Meet & Greet Add-On available for purchase!Performing solo, Splithoff strips his catalog back to voice and guitar — the setting where his songwriting and one of the most soothing, soulful voices of his generation are most exposed. This show format follows a 2025 US headline run that moved more than 12,000 tickets and sold out rooms from Charlotte’s Middle C Jazz Club to Groton Hill Music Center in Massachusetts, with two-night stands already routed this fall in Decatur, GA and Portsmouth, NH.
The run lands on the heels of the most expansive touring year of Splithoff’s career. Last month he played his first-ever New Zealand and Australia tour, selling out the entire run. This September marks his European debut, supporting Lake Street Dive on his first-ever European tour.
The tour arrives amid the strongest commercial stretch of Splithoff’s career. His Spotify monthly listeners climbed past 1.1 million this summer — a 15% jump in a single month — pushing a catalog that has now surpassed 400 million global streams and 60 million video views, alongside more than 115,000 fan-created videos across TikTok and Instagram Reels.
“Tangled,” the first song Splithoff penned for Far From Here, blends classic pop with soulful R&B and shares stories of the joys of romantic entanglement. Schooled in timeless songwriter classicism, his music often draws on similar values of musicality and song structure, with strong melodic hooks and extended bridges. “Tangled” has been widely supported at AC Radio, reaching the Top 30 on the national charts.
Splithoff’s latest album Far From Here, released via Virgin in March 2025, draws on classic soul, pop, jazz, roots and R&B. Mostly self-produced, Splithoff’s voice and musical approach recalls the icons of music from Michael McDonald to Sade, as well as its more celebrated innovators like Benny Sings and Mk.Gee.
Bio
John Splithoff is a songwriter, singer, and multi-instrumentalist who splices together throwback soul, modern production, and laid-back pop. A native of Chicago, Splithoff began gaining momentum following the independent release of his breakout single, “Sing to You.” Driven by a hypnotic howl, breezy guitar, and an unbreakable bounce, the track generated over 100 million streams, occupied coveted real estate on noted Spotify playlists and reached the top 8 at AC Radio, paving the way for Splithoff to continue to release music to a growing fanbase.
Splithoff has toured globally as a headliner with appearances at renowned festivals from Lollapalooza to Bonnaroo, building a reputation for shows that are equal parts intimate and electric.
Following the release of his sophomore album Far From Here, Splithoff is at work on his next studio album while revisiting his catalogue with fresh, stripped-back arrangements of fan-favorite songs.
