Billy Strings has unleashed a wave of news, including details on his first-ever eponymous live album, Billy Strings Live Vol. 1, due on July 12 via Reprise Records. Notably, the tracking list will be kept under wraps leading up to the release–building intrigue and excitement surrounding the impending collection. Relix and BillyBase have also teamed up to co-host “Guess The Tracklist,” offering prizes, including “Free Tickets For Life,” for those who correctly assume song inclusions on the future set. Also featured in today’s announcement is an outline of Strings’ fall tour. 

Strings’ already-announced summer tour picks up with a one-off performance featuring Chris Thile at Telluride Bluegrass Festival on June 20. After, he and his touring band will pick up a series of single-night, back-to-back performances and festival gigs, ultimately coming to a close after a California twofold on August 23 and 24, respectively. With nearly a month off, Strings picks up his Fall tour with the return of his annual Renewal event to Buena Vista, Colo., on Sept. 27-28. 

Keeping with the artist’s preferred schedule of two-night stands in single locations, he will take his live show to Clarkston, Mich., for a pair of shows at Pine Knob Music Theatre on Oct. 4 and 5. Sticking with the aforementioned format, Strings and company will play at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on Oct. 11 and 12. Next, Oct. 18 and 19 will be spent at The Orion Amphitheater in Huntsville, Ala., before moving to Baltimore for concerts on Halloween proper, Oct. 31, and Nov. 1. 

Next, there will be a gap in dates, with the next leg of confirmed dates arriving on Dec. 6 and 7 at FedEx Forum in Memphis. Then, on Dec. 10, Strings and the band will perform at BOK Center in Tulsa, only to follow up in the Lone Star State on Dec. 12 at Dickies Arena. The final pair of shows will happen at Austin, Texas’ Moody Center. 

Before the summer tour begins, Strings will release his previously mentioned live debut, which he detailed via social media, sharing details on vinyl options. Billy Strings Live Vol. 1 will be offered in colorways such as Billy Strings Pre-Order Exclusive (red and black splatter), Independent Record Store Limited Edition (translucent blue) and Spotify Fans Limited Edition (translucent red).

Full details will soon be available for those interested in guessing what songs will be included on Billy Strings Live Vol. 1. Tickets for Stings’ Fall 2024 tour will be available through general on-sale beginning Friday, June 14. A fan pre-sale is slated to commence the Wednesday prior, June 12. Visit www.billystrings.com, for more details.
