Lewis didn’t include information about opening acts. Most of the venues are theaters or casinos, but there are a few arenas sprinkled among a trek that focuses on middle America states.
Fifteen of the concerts listed below are newly announced. A press release promises, “raw honesty, stripped-down storytelling and unapologetic music.”

30 Outlaw Country Songs That Define The Movement
With its roots in the ’60s and the honky-tonk style forged by Hank Williams, outlaw country music began to snowball in the ’70s as more and more artists bristled against the genre’s commercialism, social conventions and the slick and shiny “Nashville Sound.”
Though some artists like Johnny Paycheck and David Allan Coe had served jail time before their success, the “outlaw” label applied more broadly to those artists who rejected the status quo in Nashville. Many of the definitive songs of the movement speak directly to that rebellion, while others simply embody an artist-driven, independent musical vision that sidestepped Nashville’s country hit formula of the day.
Keep reading for a round-up of 30 songs that define the outlaw country movement.
