MELBOURNE, AU (18 November, 2024) – To meet continued overwhelming demand, The Red Clay Strays have announced Newcastle and Sydney shows have been upgraded to Bar on the Hill (Outdoors), Newcastle and Hordern Pavilion, Sydney for their debut headline Australian tour.
The announcement comes after previous venue upgrades in Brisbane, which has sold out, and Melbourne, which has issued a low-ticket warning.
The Red Clay Strays are bringing their “These Moments Tour” to Australia in May for a run of electric live performances that will take them across the country. The Red Clay Strays have sold out every one of their headline shows this year as well as their upcoming 2025 Canadian tour, and Australia has continued the trend. The band will continue their tour through the fall with stops at Los Angeles’ The Wiltern, Denver’s Mission Ballroom and San Diego’s SOMA among several others. See below for complete tour itinerary.
Tickets for the upgraded shows will go on sale to the public today, Monday 18 November, 10AM local time. Full details can be found at www.redclaystrays.com/tour.

ABOUT RED CLAY STRAYS
In the midst of a breakout year, The Red Clay Strays will release their first live album, Live At The Ryman, November 15 on RCA Records (pre-save here). Recorded last month during the band’s sold-out, three-night headline debut at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium, the album features songs from across their acclaimed catalogue. Additionally, the band is nominated for Vocal Group of the Year at the upcoming 58th Annual CMA Awards (their first CMA nomination), won Emerging Act of the Year at the 2024 Americana Music Association Honors & Awards and released their 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 is filled with the band’s signature genre-blending sound, as they meld 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.”
