Austin: Artemas at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q
September 19 @ 7:00 pm - 11:00 pm
$53
British singer-songwriter Artemas brings his LOVERCORE/Getting Up To No Good Tour to Stubb’s Bar-B-Q in Austin on Saturday, September 19, 2026, with a 7:00 PM show. Tickets start at $53, with Henry Morris opening.
Artemas broke through in 2023 with “i like the way you kiss me,” a moody, genre-blurring single that went viral on TikTok and climbed charts worldwide, blending elements of pop, rock, and electronic production into something that felt distinct from the era’s dominant sounds. Since then he’s built out a growing catalog that leans into brooding melodies and confessional lyrics, positioning him as one of the more unpredictable new voices to cross over from internet virality into a genuine touring career.
Stubb’s outdoor amphitheater, framed by Austin’s downtown skyline, is one of the city’s signature concert settings, and its combination of a covered stage with open-air seating makes it a fitting home for an artist whose sound is built for both intimate listening and a big communal singalong moment.
Artemas has continued to expand his sound across a string of singles and EPs since his breakout, drawing comparisons to acts spanning alternative pop and moody electronic rock while resisting easy categorization. Fans looking to make a full night of it downtown can also check out Empire Control Room & Garage, another Austin venue known for booking rising acts.
Stubb’s has been an Austin institution for decades, known as much for its barbecue as for the acts that have played its stage over the years, and the amphitheater’s blend of a covered stage with open sky above the crowd gives every show here a distinctly Austin feel. Visitors arriving early can grab dinner at the restaurant before heading out to the amphitheater, and the venue’s downtown-adjacent East Sixth Street location makes it an easy add-on to a broader night out in the city. Over the years the outdoor stage has hosted everyone from major national touring acts to local Austin favorites, and its combination of scale and character has made it one of the most recognizable concert venues in Central Texas.
Doors typically open about an hour before showtime. Stubb’s indoor BBQ restaurant and bar are open before the show for anyone who wants dinner, and the outdoor amphitheater has both reserved and general-admission areas depending on the ticket tier.
