The Red Clay Strays announces the Grateful Tour including stop at Orlando's Kia Center

The Red Clay Strays are a high-energy Southern band out of Mobile, Alabama that mix country, rock, blues, and soul into a gritty, electrifying sound.


They started by grinding it out in small bars, but exploded into the spotlight when their song “Wondering Why” went viral, turning them into one of the hottest rising acts in country and Americana. Their music hits hard with raw emotion, powerful vocals, and a live-show intensity that feels more like a rock concert than a traditional country set.


Known for bringing passion, soul, and a whole lot of fire back into modern country music, the band released their third studio album, Grateful on June 5  via HBYCO Records/RCA Records.


In support of the album, the band are currently on the road with the Grateful Tour ’26, including a single show in Florida at Orlando's Kia Center on Wednesday, October 14.


Limited tickets for the show are still available via Ticketmaster.

Hailed by Rolling Stone in a four-star rave review as "an urgent, timely rec­ord that stands toe to toe with anything coming out of the rock world," The Red Clay Strays' acclaimed third studio album, Grateful, is available everywhere now via HBYCO Records/RCA Records.


The award-winning, 3x RIAA Platinum-certified band is currently bringing that energy to arenas coast-to-coast on an epic North American headline tour – their biggest live run thus far. The Grateful Tour '26 – which has already seen unforgettable shows at such iconic venues as Boston, MA's TD Garden, New York City's sold-out Madison Square Garden, and Vancouver, BC's Rogers Arena.


2026 has fast proven a landmark year for The Red Clay Strays. In addition to their sold-out Madison Square Garden headline debut and performance at the band recently made their second-ever appearance on NBC's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, lighting up the Studio 6B stage with a ripping take on the Grateful standout, "Don't Wanna Know."


This year has also seen The Red Clay Strays honored as "Group of the Year" at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards – their second consecutive triumph at the ACMs following a 2025 win as "New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year."


The band also hosted the premiere edition of "The Red Clay Strays Fan Fest 2026," a sold-out five-night event at Rexford, MT's Abayance Bay Marina, along with acclaimed performances at such festivals as Indio, CA's Stagecoach, Nashville, TN's annual CMA Fest presented by SoFi, and more.
