HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS Announce Spring 2026 “If Only You Were Lonely” 20th Anniversary Tour With LETLIVE. & CREEPER

Hawthorne Heights have officially announced a 20th anniversary tour celebrating their 2006 sophomore album, If Only You Were Lonely. The beloved emo/post-hardcore group will perform the record in full each night on a spring 2026 run featuring support from letlive. and Creeper. Notably, the trek also confirms that letlive. will be continuing their farewell tour into the new year.

Tickets are available starting today, October 29th, via local venue presales. A Spotify presale using the code LONELY20 will launch tomorrow, October 30th, followed by the general onsale this Friday, October 31st, at 10:00 AM local time.

Frontman JT Woodruff reflected on the milestone, stating:

“The best thing about looking back on the last 20 years is that you can do it without the fear of the past, but with the reverence that comes with the time that has actually passed. I feel like all of the noise of that time period was drowned out by the panic and stress that we were living under, when creating ‘If Only You Were Lonely’. The pressure of creating a second album was almost too much to enjoy the magic we were creating, or even thinking about it as magic at all.

While the fans never saw anything going on behind the scenes, ‘If Only You Were Lonely’ is a true tale of triumph and tragedy that changed our lives forever. It has all the haunting hallmarks of a fairy tale and horror movie, but rolled into a tightly wound package of true-life chaos. During all of that chaos, we never gave up hope, which is why we are happy to finally do a tour of this magnitude, to show our fans that life is an experience that will challenge every single emotion that you are capable of.

That is how we are approaching the ‘Lonely World Tour’. We will be playing the entire album, with a career-spanning setlist that is a full-on rollercoaster ride designed to make you forget what you are going through alone, while hopping in the car so we can all go through it TOGETHER. Whether you are coming for a night of everlasting nostalgia or prepared to exercise some lifelong demons, you will be in a room full of people who are ready to share this experience as life is supposed to be shared. TOGETHER.”
