NASHVILLE, TN – May 11, 2026 – Fresh off the release of her fifth studio album Wild on Friday, Grand Ole Opry member, GRAMMY®, CMA, and ACM award winning singer-songwriter Ashley McBryde announces today her 26-date headline Into The Wild Tour.
Launching Sept. 10 in Ashland, KY, the Into The Wild Tour promises night after night of “eagle-eyed observations, self-aware musings and hard-charging, empowering anthems” (Billboard), bringing McBryde’s all-new set to audiences nationwide.
“This record, in so many ways, began on the road,” McBryde says. “Wild is a collection of songs I’ve refused to let go quiet, that have been around for a decade. As well as some brand spanking new songs
that were clawing at my guts to get out…and some songs that were running breathlessly into the dark because they knew if they could just get to me, they’d be safe and they’d be heard. This tour breathes life and light to all of them; it brings them to you.”
“I am so grateful that I live a life of music and miles, of stories and songs,” she continues. “I am so grateful that my life purpose is to make sure the songs don’t go unheard. We’ll see you out there.”
Tickets for the Into The Wild Tour go on sale this Friday, May 15 at 10 a.m. local time. Select pre-sales will roll out throughout the week, including McBryde’s fan club Trybe pre-sale, live this Wednesday, May 13 at 10 a.m. local time. Find tickets HERE.

Praised as “one of her most deeply introspective and personal albums yet” (Billboard), “Wild showcases McBryde’s lyrical ingenuity and her knack for capturing the gritty and mundane character of the human condition” (No Depression). Across its 11 tracks, the record has “an entirely new story to tell,” (The New York Times) an album that “flexes the sort of big, loud guitar riffs and swampy rhythms that have long
been in McBryde’s toolbox but feels less constrained by convention” (The New York Times). Listen to Wild HERE and watch it HERE.

ABOUT ASHLEY MCBRYDE
“One of Nashville’s most reliable and sophisticated songwriters” (Los Angeles Times), GRAMMY, ACM, and CMA award-winning Grand Ole Opry member Ashley McBryde deals in songs that deliver hard truths with a soulful ferocity. On her new album, Wild, McBryde threads a captivating narrative over 11 tracks, culminating in the moment just before she quit drinking. The Arkansas-bred artist uncovers the deepest layers of her lived experience through it all: the grit and grind of growing up in the Ozarks, the enduring shadow of her fundamentalist upbringing, the fallout of drinking too much, and hard-won reckoning that led her to sobriety. When matched with her thrilling collision of timeless country and blistering rock & roll, the result is equal parts daring autobiography and courageous reclamation of her most untamed nature.
Earning elite accolades across her acclaimed catalog, like 2020’s Never Will, one of the only LPs ever to garner Country Album of the Year nominations from the ACM, CMA, and GRAMMYs all in the same awards season, McBryde is “an artist with many things to say and a big enough voice to slice through the noise” (Rolling Stone). The CMA International Artist Achievement award winner and recipient of an honorary doctorate in music from Arkansas State University is “the genre’s smartest lyricist” (SPIN) and “one of Nashville's brightest innovators” (NPR). Dr. McBryde innovated again last August, creating a haven on Nashville’s Lower Broadway with her non-alcoholic forward concept bar, Redemption, at home on the fifth floor of Eric Church’s Chief’s.
As she moves into her next chapter with an unprecedented clarity, McBryde hopes that listeners might reconnect with their own boldest essence. “When people hear this record, I hope it wakes up the part of them that I’m singing about in Wild—the part that still believes in those unrealized dreams and untaken risks,” says McBryde. “I believe that wild little kid is still alive inside of all of us, and that’s the version of everyone that I want to sing to.”
