As the excitement builds ahead of The Red Clay Strays’ brand new album, Grateful, the soul-stirring six-piece are heading out on a 2026 North America tour of the same name.

As part of the expansive run, the ‘Wondering Why’ hitmakers will be bringing their arsenal of country-rock earworms to Maryland, Tennessee, Ontario, Texas, Pennsylvania, Montana, South Dakota, California, Washington, Oregon, Nevada and more.

With momentum sky-high behind The Red Clay Strays, who continue to receive co-signs from high-profile figures such as Theo Von, Kelly Clarkson and Matt Rife, demand for tickets to the band's 2026 Grateful Tour is expected to be through-the-roof.

But don't fret, because we've got all the details you need in order to put yourself in pole position to score tickets to The Red Clay Strays’ eagerly anticipated Grateful Tour.

Tuesday, April 28th

Like many artists in today's landscape, The Red Clay Strays are embracing a return to fan-club apps and paid memberships. In order to gain access to the very first Pre-Sales - the Verified Diehards Pre-Sale and Verified Strays Pre-Sale - you need to have downloaded the official Red Clay Strays app and signed up to their yearly membership. These are two tiers of their membership system, and depending on which you opt for, you can become a Verified Diehard or a Verified Stray.

As far as we can see, the cost of a Verified Diehard subscription is not listed, but to become a Verified Stray, it costs $40 and you can sign up to this membership via the app.

The Verified Diehards Pre-Sale opens on Tuesday, April 28th at 9am local time, while the Verified Strays Pre-Sale opens just a few hours later that same day at 12pm local time.

Wednesday, April 29th

If you don't manage to secure tickets via either of these pre-sales, or if you don't wish to pay for The Red Clay Strays’ subscription, the Official Artist Pre-Sale kicks off on Wednesday, April 29th, at 9am local time. This is available to everyone who has The Red Clay Strays app, and does not require you purchasing a subscription.

In order to get your access code, simply go to the specific show - or shows - you wish to attend, and click to reveal the RSC App Pre-Sale Code. On our phones, this Pre-Sale Code is showing as GR8FUL, and we suspect this will be the same for everyone.

Then, on the ticket website, enter your Pre-Sale Code to gain access to tickets. Please note that, in all of these official Pre-Sales, having access does not guarantee you a ticket.

Friday, May 1st

If you've attempted to secure tickets through any of these Pre-Sale routes, and still have not managed to get your hands on passes, don't panic yet - there is still the General On-Sale, which is available to everyone. This opens on Friday, May 1st at 9am local time.
