WHAT WENT DOWN
Thornhill sold out Webster Hall in New York City on May 20 as headliners on the Revolver-presented Mercia Tour *. The Australian metalcore act brought Vianova, Fox Lake, and 156/Silence along for a North American run named after their September 2025 single *.
THE DETAILS
- The Webster Hall show was part of a headline tour that runs through May 31, with stops in Toronto, Detroit, Chicago, the Denver area, Salt Lake City, Portland, and Seattle *.
- Thornhill released their album BODIES in 2025 and spent that year as direct support for Sleep Token before stepping into the headliner slot *.
- The band went viral with a cover of Lady Gaga’s “Paparazzi” *.
- Berlin’s Vianova—a jazz-funk-djent outfit—is playing their first U.S. tour on the bill *.
- Photographer Dimitry Mak captured the Webster Hall performance *.
THE TAKE
Moving from Sleep Token’s direct support to selling out rooms like Webster Hall in less than a year is the kind of momentum that doesn’t happen by accident. Thornhill’s Mercia Tour wraps May 31 in Seattle *.
