Willie Nelson is on the road again as the headliner of the 2023 Outlaw Music Festival Tour, which will stop at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands on Sunday, July 2.
The country music legend, who will have turned 90 by the time the tour starts, will travel to at least 16 cities over the summer, with more to be announced at a later date. The first leg of the tour starts on June 23 in Somerset, Wisconsin, and also includes a stop in Dallas on Friday, June 30.
Nelson will front a rotating lineup of performers that will be different at each stop. Performers the Cynthia Woods will include Willie Nelson & Family, Whiskey Myers, Flatland Cavalry, Brittney Spencer, Particle Kid, and more to be announced later.
“I can’t wait to be on the road with the amazing group of artists joining us on this year’s Outlaw Music Festival Tour,” said Nelson in a statement. “It is always a great day of music and fun with family, friends and the incredible fans, and even more special this year in celebration of my 90th birthday.”
The tireless singer just released his 99th (!) studio album, I Don't Know a Thing About Love, comprised entirely of songs written by Harlan Howard, who gave Nelson his first job as as songwriter.
