New York, NY (February 10, 2026) ? The 2026 concert calendar just got even busier for Hunnu Rock pioneers The Hu<\/strong> and Cello Metal standouts Apocalyptica <\/strong>as the bands announce today that they\u2019ll be hitting the road together for a run of shows this May and June. <\/strong>The tour kicks off on May 12 in Silver Spring, MD and will take them across the country before wrapping in Anaheim, CA on June 7. Joining The Hu <\/strong>and Apocalyptica<\/strong> will be platinum-selling Finnish rock band The Rasmus.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public on sale for the tour will begin Friday, February 13th<\/sup> at 10AM local time. Official artist presales for The Hu<\/strong> and Apocalyptica<\/strong> will be available starting Wednesday, February 11th<\/sup> at 10AM local time through Thursday, February 12th<\/sup> at 11:59PM. Venue presales will be available on Thursday, February 12th<\/sup> from 10AM to 11:59PM local time. Special VIP packages, including meet and greet experiences and exclusive merchandise will also be available for purchase. Fortickets and additional information on VIP packages, visit thehuofficial.com<\/a> pre-sale code \u2018THEHUN\u2019<\/strong> and apocalyptica.com<\/a> pre-sale code  \u2018CELLOS\u2019<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to closing all shows on this tour, The Hu <\/strong>are celebrating the recent release of their latest single, \u201cThe Real You\u201d. \u201cThe Real You single is the representation of our new album, The Hun,\u201d says Temka \u2013 Temuulen N (band\u2019s tovshuur player, throat singer). \u201cWhile we have traditional songs that have our signature rhythm in our third album, there are few upbeat, fast songs such as this single. We recorded this song thinking of our ancestors, riding fast on the horse back through the landscape. Listen to this song to express the feelings you have buried inside and feel the overwhelming energy we pass through to you. Enjoy.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Real You\u201d is one of the few songs from The Hu <\/strong>in which Western music components are prominent. As evident in the wording, the song is asking the listeners to not judge others but focus on themselves and to become a better person. Derived from the Mongolian proverb, \u201cDon\u2019t worry about what is on top of a person\u2019s head, just worry about what is not on yours.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formed in 1993 at the world-renowned Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland, Apocalyptica<\/strong> began life as a loving, lo-fi nod to Metallica from four classically trained musicians with no greater ambition than to explore their favorite band\u2019s music with their chosen instrument. The project would take on a life of its own when they finally released Plays Metallica By Four Cellos<\/em> in 1996. Unbeknownst to Apocalyptica<\/strong>, they\u2019d just boarded a rocket ship that would propel them through eight rapturously received records, a staggering six million records sold, and a relentless touring schedule that would see them bringing their uniquely symphonic concept of heaviness to every time zone and countless festival stages around the world. Most recently, following the 25th<\/sup> anniversary of their debut record, the band released their latest album, Plays Metallica, Vol. 2, <\/em>to widespread acclaim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
