Appalachian singer Tyler Childers puts Austin on 2024 tour
Tyler Childers knows that making music is serious business.
Country/bluegrass/folk singer, songwriter, and musician Tyler Childers will embark on the worldwide "Mule Pull Tour" in 2024, including a stop at Moody Center on Wednesday, April 10.
Joined by his longtime band The Food Stamps, Childers will start the tour on February 15 in Dublin, Ireland, playing 10 dates in Europe before the U.S. leg, which runs from April 5 to May 29.
In addition to Austin, Childers will also play in Fort Worth on April 13. He'll be joined by special guest Hayes Carll in both Fort Worth and Austin.
The tour is in support of Childers' new album, Rustin’ In The Rain, set for release on Friday, September 8. It is his fifth album, with all four previous albums making the top 10 on the Billboard Country charts, and his last album — 2022's triple album Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven? — cracking the top 10 on the Billboard 200 charts.
The lead single off of the new album, "In Your Love," stands in stark contrast to recent conservative-leaning country songs, with its video featuring two male coal miners in a relationship with one another and dealing with ill health caused by their jobs.
Born in Kentucky, the redheaded Childers is married to fellow Kentucky native and fellow singer-songwriter Senora May; his song "Lady May," which may or may not be written about his wife, is considered by some to be one of the best songs he's written.
Tickets for the U.S. dates will be available for pre-sale starting Wednesday, September 13 at 10 am through 10 pm, with general on-sale following on Friday, September 15 at 9 am. Registration for pre-sale access is open now via Ticketmaster, full details can be found at tylerchildersmusic.com/tour.
To help fans get tickets at the original prices and limit professional reseller activity, the tour will use Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange for resale. If needed, fans will be able to use the Exchange to resell tickets to other fans at the original price paid. Tickets for all shows will be mobile only and restricted from transfer.
