Graystone Promotions presents Randy Travis’ More Life Tour 2025 at the Lobero Theatre on Wednesday, Feb. 12, at 7:30 p.m.
Following a successful 2024 run, Randy, his original touring band, and special guest vocalist James Dupré are ready to bring this extraordinary musical experience to fans across the country. The tour promises an unforgettable journey through Travis’ chart-topping hits, enhanced by video highlights from his celebrated career in music, film and television.
Although Travis won’t perform vocally due to the stroke he suffered in 2013, he will appear on stage with his wife, Mary, engaging with fans, interacting with the band, and celebrating the music. Dupré and the band will perform all his iconic No. 1 hits, including “On the Other Hand,” “Forever and Ever, Amen,” and “Three Wooden Crosses.”
“The More Life Tour celebrates something so much more than a musical moment in time – it’s a gift to me to spend time with my fans, and my band, as James Dupré perfectly presents the songs that best define my career. We look forward to seeing you all somewhere along the way,” said Randy Travis.
“I’m thrilled and honored to hit the road again with my hero and friend, Randy Travis. I’m looking forward to meeting and singing along with all the Randy Travis fans in 2025,” said James Dupré.
The 2024 More Life Tour kicked off at the iconic Ryman Auditorium in June, following the May release of Travis’ latest single, “Where That Came From.” The single debuted at No. 45 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. With the assistance of AI, this marked Travis’ first recording in over a decade, reuniting with longtime producer Kyle Lehning and a team of talented musicians. The release was met with excitement from fans and received an enthusiastic reception from country radio. Additionally, the Travises recently testified before Congress in Washington, D.C., in support of the American Music Fairness Act.
