What do you do with a band that doesn\u2019t fit well into any genre, and whose sound feels too old and elemental to American roots for most modern ears? What do you do with songs that yearn to inform, uplift, and inspire, as opposed to simply entertain? What do you do with a band that\u2019s unwilling to play the industry game, and don\u2019t know how to be anything other than their true authentic selves?<\/p>

Conventionally, there is no place, no plan, no path for a band like this. But The Red Clay Strays defy all of these conventions to the point where they\u2019re now one of the biggest bands in all of roots music, and are being nominated and winning mainstream industry awards while remaining decidedly outsiders.<\/p>

The ranks of independent musicians are filled with oddballs and unusual cases who don\u2019t fit the model. But the lesson and the inspiration to take from The Red Clay Strays is that if you stay true to yourself, there is no ceiling.<\/p>

On June 5th, The Red Clay Strays will release their new album simply titled Grateful<\/em>. Produced once again by Dave Cobb, it won\u2019t be a Gospel album in its entirety as some had rumored. But as the debut song \u201cDemons In Your Choir\u201d backed by a Gospel choir illustrates, it will have a strong spiritual component. \u201c\u2019Moment of Truth\u2019 was a big album about having faith in dark times, looking to a higher power,\u201d<\/em> says frontman Brandon Coleman. \u201cAnd \u2018Made By These Moments\u2019 focused on realizing those dark times that you were having to have faith through, which made you who you are. You made it through when you didn\u2019t think you would. And now we\u2019re at a point where we\u2019re grateful. Looking to God in whatever situation you\u2019re in is a denominator in all of the albums.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\u201cThe title of the album\u2019s a literal meaning to us at this moment in our careers,\u201d<\/em> adds bassist Andrew Bishop. \u201cWe\u2019re grateful for how we came out of Made By These Moments and what we have now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though we don\u2019t have a full track listing for Grateful<\/em> just yet, it\u2019s confirmed to include 11 tracks, including previously-released songs \u201cPeople Hatin’\u201d and \u201cIf I Didn\u2019t Know You.\u201d It\u2019s available now for pre-order on vinyl<\/a><\/strong>, as well as pre-save on Spotify<\/a><\/strong> and Apple Music<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>

Along with the new album, The Red Clay Strays have also announced new tour dates for the 2nd half of 2026. Openers include Brent Cobb, Wyatt Flores, Sierra Ferrell, Muscadine Bloodline, The Revivalists, Sweet Talk, and more. <\/p>

New date presales start Tuesday, 4\/28, and Wednesday 4\/29 via the Red Clay Strays App<\/a><\/strong>. General onsale starts May 1st. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
