Fort Worth
Billy Bob Thornton is heading to Fort Worth this summer for something other than “Landman.”
The 70-year-old actor and musician will stop by Billy Bob’s Texas on July 17 with his band The Boxmasters. The show is part of the band’s “2026 Morro Rock Tour,” which begins in late June and runs through early August.
Thornton formed the group in 2006, and the band has churned out 19 albums since. Their next album, “In The Bay,” releases June 12.
Tickets for the Fort Worth show are on sale now and vary in price depending on seating. In addition to Cowtown, other Texas tour stops include Tomball, Whitehouse, Austin and New Braunfels.

Sam Elliott as T.L. and Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy in “Landman” episode 10, season 2, streaming on Paramount+. Emerson Miller Paramount+ More on Thornton
Thornton has become a Fort Worth mainstay over the past couple of years due to Taylor Sheridan’s “Landman.”
The Paramount+ series is primarily filmed, and partially set, in Fort Worth. The show wrapped up its 10-episode second season in January, and has been renewed for a third go-around.
In January, “Landman” co-creator Christian Wallace told the Hollywood Reporter that filming on season 3 begins in May. If that remains the case, Thornton will have a busy spring and summer between filming the show and touring with his band.
For anyone looking to catch up on “Landman,” both seasons are streaming on Paramount+.
