    Grammy-winning heartthrob John Mayer heads to Houston on new tour

    Tall, dreamy, and possessing a sultry voice and serious guitar chops, John Mayer has been a pop culture force since he exploded on the scene with his quintuple-platinum 2001 debut album Room For Squares (who can forget the singalong chorus of “Why Georgia?”).

    Since then, he’s managed to concoct perfect grooves, chart-topping hits, a global legion of swooning female fans — and abject jealousy and FOMO in male fans (we kid… a little).

    Mayer, who boasts seven Grammys (including Song of the Year for the fan favorite, “Daughters”), heads to Houston next year for his just-announced “Sob Rock” Tour, in support of his new Sob Rock album — his eighth studio work and first solo release since 2017.

    He’ll play Toyota Center on April 23, 2022; tickets go on sale Friday, July 23 at online at the Toyota Center site. The tour kicks off Thursday, February 17, in Albany, New York.

    Local fans who can’t get enough can also catch the singer/songwriter in Austin on April 20 at the Moody Center, and in Dallas on April 24 at American Airlines Center.

    Fans can look forward to a slew of hits from his triple-platinum Heavier Things (2003), double-platinum Battle Studies (2009), and gold Born and Raised (2012). He may also tease tunes from his group Dead & Company, in which he sings and plays lead guitar. Mayer and the band have played to more than 3.4 million fans in major stadiums.

    Expect to see much of Mayer as he makes the publicity rounds (he’ll be on the Today show on July 20); his first single from the new album — “Last Train Home” — has just dropped.

    And expect screams, selfies, and more when the dashing Mayer hits the Bayou City.

    Texas-born country star Cody Johnson will close out RodeoHouston 2026

    Cody Johnson will perform at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on March 22, 2026.

    A Texas-born country star will close out the 2026 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Cody Johnson will take the star-shaped stage for a concert-only performance on March 22, 2026.

    A native of Sebastopol, TX — a small town near Huntsville — the singer’s track “Welcome to the Show” has been the rodeo’s official theme song since 2019. Johnson brings legit rodeo experience to his work, having competed as a professional bull rider before devoting his life to music.

    Known for songs such as “‘Til You Can’t,” “The Painter,” and “Me and My Kind,” Johnson has earned numerous awards, including the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards Song of the Year for “Dirt Cheap,” CMT Artist of The Year, three CMT Music Awards wins, four CMA Awards including Album of The Year in 2024, and “Best New Country Artist” at the iHeart Music Awards in 2023.

    It will be Johnson’s fifth RodeoHouston performance. He most recently appeared as the opening act of the 2022 rodeo, which is also the last time the event concluded with a concert-only performance by country legend George Strait.

    “Every performance at RodeoHouston is a privilege and as a rodeo man at heart, being asked to perform on a special night like this surpasses any of my wildest dreams,” Johnson said in a statement.

    Tickets for the performance will go on sale Thursday, August 21. More information will be posted to rodeohouston.com in the coming weeks. RodeoHouston’s remaining entertainer lineup will be announced in early 2026, per a press release.

    “Over the years, Cody has become a part of our beloved tradition – from captivating thousands year-after-year to recording RodeoHouston's official brand anthem,” said Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo president and CEO, Chris Boleman. “We are thrilled he is just as honored as we are to return in 2026.”
