    R&B stars Usher and Chris Brown will co-headline the appropriately-titled The R&B Tour in 2026, an all-stadium journey which will include a stop at NRG Stadium in Houston on Friday, October 9.

    The tour, which has a double meaning of "Raymond and Brown," the singers' last names, will include 33 dates over almost six months, starting in Denver, Colorado on June 26.

    In addition to Houston, other Texas stops will include Dallas on September 10, El Paso on October 3, and San Antonio on October 5.

    Both artists are coming off of recent solo tours, as Usher toured in 2024 in support of his latest album, Coming Home, while Brown's Breezy Bowl XX tour, celebrating the 20th anniversary of his debut album, took place over three months in 2025.

    Brown and Usher have each been at or near the top of their genre for a long time, with Brown going to either No. 1 or No. 2 on Billboard's R&B/Hip Hop chart with each of his 11 albums, and Usher doing same with seven of his nine albums.

    Tickets for the tour will be available starting with Citi presale beginning Tuesday, April 21 followed by The R&B Tour Presale on Thursday, April 23.

    Fans must sign up for The R&B Tour Presale by April 21 at 9 pm. Anyone who signs up for the presale can join, no code needed.

    To sign up for the The R&B Tour Presale, fans must be a Live Nation All Access member, which they can join for free when signing up at signup.livenation.com/therandbtour.

    Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on sale beginning Monday, April 27 at 12 pm at RaymondAndBrownTour.com.

    The tour will also partner with Global Citizen to provide access to quality education for children around the world by donating $1 for every ticket sold to the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.

    Record Store Day 2026

    Record Store Day brings special releases to 13 Houston-area stores

    Record Store Day draws people to indie stores for a chance to find hundreds of early access or limited edition releases.

    Houston music-lovers with a soft spot for physical media have a special day coming up. This Saturday, April 18, is Record Store Day (RSD). Independent record stores around town and the rest of the country have signed a pledge to sell special releases at a fair price "in the spirit of Record Store Day."

    There are many special releases each year; in 2026, there are about 350. Because these are not regular album drops, many of them are live records, B sides, radio sessions, deluxe anniversary editions, and other compilations. There are three types of RSD releases: exclusives for physical sales in indie stores only; RSD "first" for prioritizing indie stores before potentially opening up to other retailers, and small run or regional titles, made for very limited release.

    What you can buy will depend on what each record store has decided to stock. Even though this could be a fun excuse to visit new and less familiar record stores, shoppers who want something specific should prioritize stores they know align with their taste. Many of the stores hold special events related to the day, and shoppers frequently line up early to get first choice.

    The participating Houston stores are:

    • Cactus Music
    • Evolution Records, Tapes and More (Baytown)
    • Music Town (Klein)
    • Sig's Lagoon
    • Sound Exchange
    • Sound Revolution (Spring)
    • Sound Revolution II
    • Soundwaves
    • Space City Audio (Spring)
    • Sweet Spot Audio and Records (Webster)
    • Vinyl Edge
    • Volume Music (The Woodlands)
    • ZT Records (The Woodlands Mall)
