NASHVILLE, Tenn. — George Strait continues to prove why he's been dubbed the King of Country, setting a record for the largest single ticketed concert in U.S. History and a new record for Texas A&M Kyle Field for a single event with 110,905 fans in attendance for George Strait: The King at Kyle Field. The record-breaking performance was one of only 10 live shows from Strait last year including a supersized stop at Allegiant Stadium for his 37th Strait to Vegas show.

The country music icon along with eleven-time GRAMMY winner Chris Stapleton will continue the excitement with five shows in 2025, including a stop at Highmark Stadium on Saturday, Jun. 14, 2025. Joining Strait and Stapleton for this run of one-off stadium dates will be special guest Parker McCollum for the Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Foxborough dates.

"I keep trying to slow down a bit but you keep calling me back. Please don't ever stop. I still love it just as much as I always have," shares Strait. "Thank you for an amazing year last year and I can't wait to see you for a few more again this year. Chris will be back and glad to have Little Big Town with us in LA. For the other cities, we've added Parker M. to the show which will be outstanding. Can't wait to see you!!"

Of his stop at New Jersey's Metlife Stadium last year The Associated Press opined, "Strait turned a space of tens of thousands across many demographics into something resembling the intimacy of those honky tonks he's always singing about." Bringing "a big band and a lot of heart" for what AP describes as the "closest a person can get to levitation…singing along to 'Amarillo by Morning' in a stadium of tens of thousands."

While Pollstar opines, "Strait remains the most worthy inheritor of Merle Haggard or Willie Nelson's mantle of country icon through the meaningful fluidity with which he moves through country's various sub-strains with the same ease and enjoyment that marked both men's Country Music Hall of Fame careers."

It's been 15 years since The New York Times praised Strait as "a country superstar in complete command of his gift," and with the arrival of his 31st studio album for MCA last year, Cowboys And Dreamers, that statement rings just as true. Filled with classic country honky-tonkers about drinkin' and not thinkin' as well as sad songs and ballads about loss and cheatin', listen to the album Cowboys & Indians Magazine notes is "a cornucopia of trad-country-arrangement beauty," HERE.

The follow-up to Honky Tonk Time Machine, Strait's 27th No. 1 Billboard Country album, Cowboys And Dreamers was named "album of the week" by Associated Press, and features 13 new songs, including "Three Drinks Behind," "MIA Down in MIA," "The Little Things," "Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame" featuring Chris Stapleton and Strait's rendition of Waylon Jennings' "Waymore's Blues" which all have made appearances in his live set.

About Chris Stapleton:
Kentucky-born Chris Stapleton is an 11x Grammy, 19x CMA and 19x ACM Award-winner and one of the country's most respected and beloved musicians. In the midst of yet another triumphant year, Stapleton recently won Best Country Solo Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards ("It Takes A Woman") as well as three trophies at the CMA Awards this past fall. With the accolades, Stapleton tied the record for most CMA wins ever with Brooks & Dunn (19), while also extending his own record for most wins in the Male Vocalist of the Year category (8).

These achievements follow the release of Stapleton's widely acclaimed album, Higher (Mercury Nashville). Produced by Dave Cobb, Morgane Stapleton and Chris Stapleton, the record landed on several "Best of" lists including Billboard, Esquire, Vulture and Rolling Stone, who praised, "dazzling…the best evidence yet for the way one man's voice has become synonymous with the very idea of a musical genre." Additionally, GQ declared, "In an age rife with division, he's maybe the only thing Americans all agree on…one of the most reliable hit makers in music."

Stapleton has also recently collaborated with artists such as Post Malone, Dua Lipa, Slash and George Strait, released a version of Tom Petty's "I Should Have Known It" for the new Tom Petty tribute album and returned to NBC's "Saturday Night Live" for the third time as musical guest. Known for his electric live performances, Stapleton will continue his "All-American Road Show" tour through this fall including back-to-back stops at New York's Madison Square Garden, Denver's Ball Arena, Tinley Park's Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre and Phoenix's Desert Diamond Arena as well as several dates across Australia and New Zealand.

Stapleton and his wife, Morgane, are founders of the Outlaw State of Kind charitable fund, which supports a variety of causes that are close to their hearts, while Stapleton also recently unveiled Traveller Whiskey, created in partnership with Buffalo Trace Distillery's Master Distiller Harlen Wheatley.
