Update November 2025:
Many will know that there were high hopes for InnerTuba to return to the USA in 2026. Sadly this isn’t to be. Readers will be aware that the world is in a state of economic and political turmoil at the moment. The unrest, uncertainties, and troubles that follow from that seem set to continue … at least for a while.
It’s difficult for anyone to predict how global events will unfold this coming year or two. However, here at “TubaTowers”, I take the view that it’s entirely possible that positive, healthy changes may well emerge from the current situation quite quickly. I’m keeping a keen eye on news and current affairs reports here at my UK home base.
InnerTuba’s aim remains the same. I seek to return to the USA, and /or to other areas of the North American Continent. Ideally, I still want to undertake this journey just as soon as things have settled down, and the funding allows.

Music, Movement, and a Mission!
InnerTuba is all about charity fundraising, adventure travel, playing music, and connecting with people.
The InnerTuba Mississippi Tour of 2023 was a huge sucess, both musically and philanthropically. InnerTuba and its supporters raised approaching $7,000 for US Charities. Thank you to all who came on board!
InnerTuba represents more than just a personal adventure or an arts project; it is a shining example of how music, movement, and giving generously combine.

By riding this long distance expedition, and collecting donations en route, InnerTuba closed the gap between charity and recipient, between performer and audience, and between stranger and friend.
InnerTuba’s dream, built one mile and one musical note at a time, shows what is possible when travel, art, and charity are united.
Looking ahead, please pledge or donate here to support the proposed InnerTuba Tour from Midwest to Northwest USA.
Thanks for visiting,
Jon Hodkin.
Tuba player, tricyclist, and founder of InnerTuba.
