ChristinaNashville, Tenn. – Building on the release of his third studio album, Eagle Feather, country singer-songwriter and rising star Ian Munsick will embark on the headlining The Eagle Flies Free Tour in early 2026.
Beginning February 13 in Charlotte, North Carolina, and featuring 17 dates with special guests Lanie Gardner, Ben Haggard, Tyler Nance and Jake Worthington, the run will again highlight one of the most distinctive voices in modern country music – and his distinctive modern-Western style.
Sharing the news directly to fans after revealing his recent departure from his label, Warner Music Nashville, Munsick expressed his appreciation for their support, stating, “Of all the accomplishments and relationships I’ve made since I started my music career, one remains at the summit of the mountain; fans like you. You have allowed me to break the chains of Music Row and fly free. You were the reason I moved to Nashville in the first place and you are now the reason why I have the freedom to blaze my own trail.
“The Eagle Flies Free Tour will be our greatest tour yet,” he continued. “The bond you have with me and Rocky Mountain Fever is unlike anything I’ve experienced and it is an honor to witness night in and night out. Some of you have been to 10 + shows. Some of you might be coming to a show for the first time. Either way, this tour will be one of the best shows you’ve ever seen. Come fly with me.”
Presale tickets will be available to members of Munsick’s official fan club starting Wednesday, October 8 at 10 a.m. local time. The presale ends Thursday, October 9 at 10 p.m. local, and all remaining tickets will be available to the public starting Friday, October 10 at 10 a.m. local.
Showcasing the vivid vocal howl made famous by Gold-certified hits like “Long Live Cowgirls” (with Cody Johnson), “Long Haul,” and “Horses Are Faster,” Munsick’s The Eagle Flies Free Tour will criss-cross the Western U.S. expanse this Wyoming native calls home, while also visiting Georgia, Indiana, Texas and more.
Highlight stops will include a Valentine’s Day (February 14) show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, Georgia; a March 5 stop at Scheels Arena in Fargo, North Dakota; and a March 27 swing though the iconic Floores Country Store in Helotes, Texas, among other must see moments.
Munsick’s pre-spring run will wrap up March 28 in Durant, Oklahoma (at the Choctaw Grand Theater), as he gears up for another summer on the road. VIP ticket offers will be available for all dates except March 28 in Durant, Oklahoma.
The follow up to his 2025 Eagle Feather album, Munsick’s The Eagle Flies Free Tour continues a streak of touring success for the native son of Sheridan, Wyoming – including a history making turn at the famous Cheyenne Frontier Days in July.
Headlining the iconic rodeo and Western lifestyle celebration, Munsick became the first Wyoming native to secure top-billing of the event’s musical lineup, playing songs from across his three albums – Coyote Cry, White Buffalo and Eagle Feather.

Her career skyrocketed after her cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams” went viral, amassing over 66 million views. On September 5, she released her sophomore album Faded Polaroids, offering a sonic scrapbook of self-discovery, family roots, romantic twists, and personal healing. Across 18 tracks, she blends country storytelling with indie-rock grit, small-town pop, and boundary-free emotion.

Writing from a young age and gaining inspiration from various genres such as Country, Bluegrass, Folk and Americana, the Missouri native’s sound is uniquely his own, yet resonates with the masses. Keeping authenticity and originality as a priority, it’s safe to say that the up-and-comer has a promising future in an industry that is thirsty for just that.

For Big Loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington, country music is in his DNA. The La Porte, Texas native was raised on his grandfather’s porch performances of Ray Price, Merle Haggard and George Jones, and soon picked up his own Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic, wide, and wild voice. Now, Worthington breathes fresh life into dance halls, beer joints, and ballrooms from Texas to Tennessee with his growing catalog – his sophomore album When I Write The Song is out now with Miranda Lambert collaboration “Hello Shitty Day,” “I’m The One (feat. Marty Stuart),” viral “It Ain’t The Whiskey” and more. Captivating the masses with his honky-tonk stylings, the singer-songwriter hits the road this fall joining Zach Top as direct support on all dates of the Cold Beer & Country Music Tour followed by supporting slots on Jon Pardi’s Honkytonk Hollywood Tour. “I believe in country music as much as I believe in my next breath,” Worthington declares, and “blame it on my raising, but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.”
