The Red Clay Strays were featured on CBS Saturday Morning this past weekend, performing three songs as part of their “Saturday Sessions” series: “Wanna Be Loved,” “I’m Still Fine,” and “Disaster.”

Further showcasing their electrifying performances, the band will release their first live album, Live At The Ryman, on November 15 via RCA Records (pre-save here). Recorded last month during the band’s sold-out, three-night debut at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium, the album features songs from across their catalog, including “I’m Still Fine (Live At The Ryman)” and “Will The Lord Remember Me (Live At The Ryman).”

The record adds to a breakout year for The Red Clay Strays, who are nominated for Vocal Group of the Year at the upcoming 58th Annual CMA Awards (their first CMA nomination). They also won Emerging Act of the Year at the 2024 Americana Music Association Honors & Awards and released their acclaimed new album, Made by These Moments, earlier this summer (stream/purchase here).

Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell), Made by These Moments features the band’s signature genre-blending sound, melding electric rock and roll with Southern soul. In celebration of the new music, the band was recently featured on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday, Bert Kreischer’s The BertCast, and This Past Weekend with Theo Von. As one of music’s fastest-rising bands, The Red Clay Strays have spent much of the past year on the road, selling out every one of their headlining shows in 2024. The band will continue to tour through the fall, with upcoming stops in Los Angeles, Denver, and San Diego, as well as several dates across Australia, Canada, and Hawaii next year. Due to overwhelming demand, their upcoming shows in Brisbane and Melbourne have been upgraded to larger venues. See below for the complete tour itinerary.

The Red Clay Strays are Brandon Coleman (lead vocals, guitar, keys), Drew Nix (electric guitar, vocals, harmonica), Zach Rishel (electric guitar), Andrew Bishop (bass), and John Hall (drums). Formed in Mobile, AL, in 2016, the group has achieved massive success with their Platinum-certified single, “Wondering Why.” With over 100 million streams to date, the track spent a week at #1 on Spotify’s Viral 50 USA Playlist and six consecutive weeks at #1 on the Americana Singles chart. The song also reached #84 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100, #7 on Billboard’s Hot Rock Songs chart, #16 on the Billboard AAA chart, and #18 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart, continuing to gain support across genres.

“Wondering Why” is from the band’s 2022 album, Moment of Truth, which Billboard praised: “Lead singer Coleman’s gruff, impassioned vocal shines here as always, bolstered by the group’s exemplary musicianship.” Rolling Stone declared the band “the musical manifestation of the push and pull between salvation and redemption…Delta blues, gritty honky-tonk, and Sun Records rockabilly, shot through with a palpable darkness.” Since its release, The Red Clay Strays have made their Grand Ole Opry debut and toured extensively, including shows with Dierks Bentley, Eric Church, Elle King, and Turnpike Troubadours.
