Lainey Wilson, Tyler Childers, The War and Treaty & More to Open Shows for The Rolling Stones
Written by djfrosty on April 25, 2024
The Rolling Stones will launch the group’s Hackney Diamonds North American tour on April 28 at NRG Houston, and the lineup of openers for various dates on the tour includes a few heavy-hitters from country and Americana circles.
Reigning CMA entertainer of the year Lainey Wilson, as well as Tyler Childers, The Red Clay Strays and The War and Treaty are among the openers, joining Carin León (who made his own Grand Ole Opry debut earlier this year and has a country-tinged album in the works), The Pretty Reckless, Ghost Hounds, Bettye LaVette, Gary Clark Jr. and The Linda Lindas.
Wilson will open for The Rolling Stones on June 30 at Soldier Field in Chicago, while Childers, who released his sixth album Rustin in the Rain in 2023, will perform June 3 at Camping World Stadium in Orlando. The Red Clay Strays, who earned their first major Billboard Hot 100 entry this year with “Wondering Why,” will open for the rockers on May 30 at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass. Grammy-nominated duo The War and Treaty, who just released the video for their song “Stealing a Kiss,” will open for The Stones on July 10 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

The tour supports The Rolling Stones’ album Hackney Diamonds, their first project of new, original material in nearly two decades.
Notably, Wilson and The War and Treaty were part of a 2023 tribute album to The Rolling Stones, Stoned Cold Country, which featured several country artists performing Stones classics.
