Leon Bridges and Charley Crockett are bringing their Texas-born soul and country sounds together on the road this summer. The duo have announced The Crooner & The Cowboy Tour, a co-headlining trek spanning June through September 2025. Kicking off June 5 at Los Angeles’ famed Hollywood Bowl, the tour will hit over 20 cities and wrap September 23 at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. The tour’s name says it all – Bridges, the smooth R&B crooner, and Crockett, the honky-tonk cowboy, unite their talents for a genre-blending concert experience.
Fans can expect an array of supporting talent on select dates. Rising Canadian country singer Noeline Hofmann, L.A. Latin-funk outfit Reyna Tropical and Americana vets Dave Alvin & Jimmie Dale Gilmore are among the special guests set to open at various stops. Both Bridges and Crockett hail from Texas, and the tour follows a successful hometown collaboration last fall when they shared the stage in Fort Worth. “This isn’t just a concert, it’s a collision of soul and grit, an evening of music that echoes across time, place, and genre,” reads a joint tour statement.
The tour dates include a late-summer run across the U.S., with highlights like a two-night stand at Thompson’s Point in Portland, Maine (Aug. 31–Sept. 1) and a stop at New York’s Forest Hills Stadium on Sept. 4. Notably, each ticket sold for the co-headlining shows will benefit a good cause – one dollar per ticket goes to Leon Bridges’ charity The Big Good, supporting community needs in North Texas.
Given Bridges’ Grammy-winning soul catalog and Crockett’s devoted alt-country following, this summer pairing is poised to be a hot ticket. Both artists are riding momentum from new albums – Bridges’ Leon (released last October) and Crockett’s Lonesome Drifter, his Island Records debut – making The Crooner & The Cowboy Tour a must-see for fans of heartfelt Texas music traditions.
