Special guests on the tour include Jensen McRae, I’m With Her, Gregory Alan Isakov, The Head and The Heart, Stephen Wilson Jr. and CMAT.

Travel packages are available for Carlile’s Red Rocks weekend, bundling show tickets with local hotel accommodations, round-trip transportation to the venue and exclusive merchandise. Fans can choose a three-night package including tickets to all three Red Rocks shows, or a one-night package for the September 11, 12 or 13, 2026 performances.
Ahead of the fall run, Carlile will return to The Gorge Amphitheatre this spring with her “Echoes Through the Canyon” weekend on May 29, 30 and 31. The Highwomen will headline night three, which was recently added due to overwhelming demand. Additional special guests throughout the weekend include Sheryl Crow, Indigo Girls, Bonnie Raitt, Wynonna Judd, I’m With Her, Brittney Spencer and Sara Bareilles. Carlile will also headline the Newport Folk Festival on July 26.
The upcoming dates follow the acclaimed first leg of “The Human Tour,” which included shows at New York’s Madison Square Garden (two nights), Los Angeles’ Kia Forum and Boston’s TD Garden. The Boston Herald praised the performance, writing: “Brandi’s unmistakable vocal delivery with a towering band, her strange and perfect songs done with all the drama they deserve, her infectious enthusiasm for performing, all combined to prove she belongs in this big place. Even if she can make it feel so small.”
The spring run also featured “Be Human: A Concert for Minneapolis,” described by Rolling Stone as “a monumental gig,” which raised over $700,000 for Minnesota’s The Advocates for Human Rights and was livestreamed from Carlile’s sold-out show at Minneapolis’ Target Center.
In the midst of another groundbreaking year, Carlile’s new album Returning To Myself—produced by Carlile, Andrew Watt, Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon—debuted at No. 7 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart this past fall (Interscope Records/Lost Highway).
Recently honored as one of TIME Magazine’s 2026 Women of the Year, Carlile also delivered a “gorgeous” (Billboard) rendition of “America The Beautiful” at Super Bowl LX, returned to NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Concert series and NBC’s Saturday Night Live as musical guest for the fourth time, and appeared on The Howard Stern Show, NPR’s Wild Card with Rachel Martin and The Drew Barrymore Show. She was also recently profiled by The New York Times.
