The Red Clay Strays Extend Their Grateful Tour Into 2027
There's no slowing down for The Red Clay Strays.
Following an increasingly successful run of live performances, the Mobile, Alabama-based group is preparing for another extensive year on the road with its newly announced Grateful Tour '27.
The 2027 leg officially begins January 22 at Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina, and continues through September 19 at Moody Center in Austin, Texas.
Along the way, the band will perform in major markets including Cleveland, Indianapolis, Denver, Los Angeles, Oklahoma City, and Tucson, Arizona.
The new dates feature a combination of indoor arenas and outdoor amphitheaters, giving fans across North America additional opportunities to experience the band's signature blend of country, Southern rock, gospel, and soul.
Three Special Hometown Shows in Alabama
One of the biggest highlights of the announcement is a three-night hometown celebration scheduled for March 25, 26, and 27, 2027, at Regions Arena in Mobile, Alabama.
For a band that built its reputation through years of live performances before earning national recognition, returning home for three consecutive headline concerts represents a particularly meaningful milestone.
The hometown performances will also feature special guests St. Paul & The Broken Bones.
Avery Anna Joins the 2027 Tour Lineup
The Red Clay Strays are also bringing additional talent along for the ride.
Avery Anna, one of Country Music 's emerging voices, will support select performances during the early portion of the 2027 tour, including dates in January and February, as well as additional appearances in March and April.
Other special guests scheduled for select dates include The Bends and St. Paul & The Broken Bones.
Anna's inclusion gives fans an opportunity to experience two different styles of contemporary Country Music on the same stage, pairing her modern country sound with the soulful, roots-driven performances of The Red Clay Strays.
Building on the Success of Grateful
The expanded tour follows the release of the band's 2026 album, Grateful, produced by acclaimed producer Dave Cobb and released through HBYCO Records and RCA Records.
The album arrived in June 2026 and serves as the centerpiece of the band's current touring chapter.
Known for powerful vocals, emotional songwriting, and energetic live performances, The Red Clay Strays have developed a distinctive sound that crosses traditional genre boundaries.
Their Music brings together elements of country, blues, Southern rock, and gospel, helping the band connect with audiences beyond the conventional Country Music format.
The continued expansion of their touring schedule reflects the growing demand for their live performances.
