Neo-traditional country artist Braxton Keith is keeping the momentum going as he heads into 2026, announcing a new run of headline dates for the first quarter of the year. The “This Ain’t My First Tour Tour Continued…” will take Keith across the U.S. and overseas through March, with additional shows expected to follow. After a standout 2025 that included more than 130 performances, the new dates continue to cement his reputation as one of country music’s most exciting young live acts. Tickets and tour details are available at braxtonkeith.com.
The tour news arrives on the heels of a major career milestone. Keith made his Grand Ole Opry debut on October 28, where he was surprised on stage with a plaque celebrating his first RIAA Gold certification for “Cozy.” The single has now surpassed 100 million global streams, marking a defining moment for the Warner Records Nashville rising star.
Keith’s latest release—a cover of George Strait’s iconic “The Chair”—has also been turning heads. Following a viral live clip, the track was officially released on October 7 and quickly became the fastest-streaming debut of his career, clearing two million global streams in its first week. The timing is a fitting tribute to Strait’s original classic, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year.
Industry watchers have taken note of Keith’s rapid ascent. Named one of Nashville Briefing’s 25 Artists to Watch in 2025, he was also selected for Dickel Whisky’s Class of ’25, recognized as one of the “fresh faces” helping shape the next era of country music—joining artists such as Kaitlin Butts and Tyler Halverson.
