Who is opening for The Red Clay Strays in 2027?
The support lineup changes by date. The primary 2027 supporting acts are Avery Anna, The Bends and St. Paul & The Broken Bones.
Avery Anna
Avery Anna brings a modern country-pop edge to the bill, pairing diaristic songwriting with the kind of big, emotional choruses that translate well in an arena setting. Her songs lean heavily into heartbreak, growing up and self-reflection, making her a natural fit for fans who connect with the more vulnerable side of The Red Clay Strays' music.
The Bends
The Bends add a younger, more alternative-rock energy to the lineup. Their sound pulls from indie, garage rock and melodic alternative influences, giving the Canadian dates a slightly different feel from the rest of the tour and adding more guitar-driven variety early in the night.
St. Paul & The Broken Bones
St. Paul & The Broken Bones bring a full-bodied Southern soul sound built around Paul Janeway's powerhouse vocals, brass-heavy arrangements and a live-show style that feels equally at home in theaters and outdoor amphitheaters. Their mix of soul, funk and rock makes them one of the most distinctive support acts on the tour, especially for fans who like the rootsier, more soulful side of The Red Clay Strays' sound.
The Feb. 28 Tampa appearance at Hondo Rodeo Fest is a festival date, so it should be treated separately from the standard tour support lineup.
When does The Red Clay Strays’ 2027 tour start?
The newly announced 2027 leg begins Friday, Jan. 22, at Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The event is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6 p.m. Avery Anna is scheduled to support the show.
When does The Red Clay Strays’ 2027 tour end?
The currently announced 2027 run concludes Sunday, Sept. 19, at Moody Center in Austin, Texas.
The concert is scheduled for 7 p.m. CT with St. Paul & The Broken Bones. The Moody Center event page lists the general onsale for Friday, Oct. 9, at 10 a.m. CT.
What to expect from The Red Clay Strays’ “Grateful Tour”
The “Grateful Tour” supports the band’s third studio album, Grateful, while continuing a rapid move from smaller rooms into major arenas and amphitheaters.
The 2027 schedule includes a mix of indoor arena shows, outdoor amphitheater dates, festival appearances and the band’s three-night Mobile hometown run. The support lineup also changes with the season, giving different parts of the tour their own identity.
Avery Anna anchors much of the winter arena run. The Bends join the Canadian dates, while St. Paul & The Broken Bones take over for the Mobile homecoming and most of the summer and early fall amphitheater leg.
Show times and doors can vary by venue. Check the event page before heading out, especially for outdoor dates where parking and entry may take additional time.
