On the Road Again: 2021’s Country, Americana, Bluegrass and Folk Tours

Since March 2020, the novel coronavirus pandemic has kept musicians at home, grounding all major tours for months. There's a bit of light at the end of the tunnel, however: Some artists rescheduled their 2020 treks to 2021.

Darryl Worley is out playing smaller shows now, though, as are Randy Houser and Jamey Johnson, and more artists are poised to do the same soon. Rescheduled tours, from everyone from Chris Stapleton to Reba McEntire, are on the calendar, though shifting still.

Dan + Shay and Kane Brown have, thus far, opted to wait the longest to resume shows: Their arena tours will kick off in September.

Of course, the pandemic is still raging in the United States, so unfortunately, none of these artists' tour plans are guaranteed; in fact, Maren Morris rescheduled, and then canceled, her RSVP: The Tour, and other artists (Brown, for example) have again pushed back their plans. The Boot will keep this list and photo gallery updated with changes and new tours as they're announced.
