George Kusunoki Miller, better known as Joji, began his SOLARIS TOUR on June 16, 2026, in Newark, New Jersey. The Newark show served as the opening night of Joji’s global tour, which will take him across North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.

Before selling out arenas around the world, Joji was known online as Filthy Frank and Pink Guy, creating YouTube content that gained a cult following beginning in 2011. Since retiring his comedy personas, Joji has transformed himself into a globally respected artist whose music has connected with millions through its raw emotion and vulnerability. Iconic songs such as “SLOW DANCING IN THE DARK,” “Glimpse of Us,” “Sanctuary,” and “Die For You” from his SMITHEREENS album have solidified his place as one of the defining artists in alternative pop.

The SOLARIS TOUR arrives in support of his latest album, Piss In The Wind, while also promising a setlist filled with fan favorites spanning his career. Having attended previous Joji concerts, one of the most memorable aspects of his live performances is the atmosphere he creates. Between songs, he often pauses for comedic bits, interacts directly with fans, takes joking “pee breaks,” and even turns the arena into a giant hangout session with games like Super Smash Bros. These unexpected moments make each show feel unique and personal.

The result is a concert experience that feels both intimate and unpredictable, blending raw emotional performances with the same offbeat humor that first introduced millions to George Miller over a decade ago. It is this balance between vulnerability and entertainment that has made Joji’s live shows so beloved by fans and leaves audiences excited to see what surprises await each night of the SOLARIS TOUR.
