Citing “overwhelming demand,” Strait announced a new April 24 show with a different lineup, including Grammy and CMA Award nominee Zach Top and singer, songwriter and producer Dylan Gosset.<\/p>\n

The announcement comes at the end of Strait’s co-headlining tour with Chris Stapleton earlier this year.<\/p>\n

“I keep trying to slow down a bit, but you keep calling me back,” Strait told Rolling Stones reporters in February.<\/a> “Please don’t ever stop. I still love it just as much as I always have.”<\/p>\n

Tickets for the new show on April 24 will go on sale at 10 a.m. on Nov. 21.<\/p>\n

Aside from tour announcements, Strait has been making headlines this year, from a petition created by fans who wanted him to replace<\/a> global superstar Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl LX halftime show to President Donald Trump announcing Strait as a 2025 Kennedy Center honoree.<\/a><\/p>\n

At the beginning of next year, Strait will be introduced into the Texas Songwriters Hall of Fame alongside Lambert.<\/p>\n
