Platinum-selling country artist Lee Brice is gearing up for a major return to Canada in 2026 with the announcement of his highly anticipated Sunriser Tour, a run that promises the heartfelt songwriting, powerhouse vocals, and down-to-earth storytelling that have made Brice one of country music’s most compelling live performers. With dates scheduled across British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario, the tour will showcase Brice’s signature blend of chart-topping hits, emotional ballads, and fan-favorite anthems—each framed by the humor and heart that have become staples of his shows.
Joining Brice on the road are two exciting supporting acts who further emphasize the tour’s star power. First is Brett Kissel, the platinum-selling Canadian country sensation who has become one of the nation’s most celebrated live performers. Known for his charismatic stage presence and a long list of radio hits, Kissel is expected to be a major draw for local audiences. Opening the shows is rising star Grace Tyler, whose rapidly growing profile and rich, emotive voice have made her one of country’s most promising new artists. Together, the trio promises a night of powerful performances and unforgettable stories.
Brice’s connection to Canada is long and heartfelt—something he emphasized in a passionate statement accompanying the tour announcement.
“Man, Canada, y’all have been ridin’ shotgun with me since back before I even had a hit!” Brice shared. “That fire you lit in my soul has only burned brighter over the years, and you’ve got a permanent spot right here in this country boy’s heart. You’ve watched me chase these sunrises, and I can’t wait to roll back into your towns on the Sunriser Tour, showin’ off this new fire we’ve stoked together. Get ready friends, I’m comin’ back to y’all with all I’ve got!”
The tour coincides with Brice’s recent wave of new music, which has seen him explore themes of vulnerability, nostalgia, and country pride. Earlier this year he kicked things off with “Cry,” a striking ode to vulnerable masculinity that resonated deeply with fans. The track showcased Brice’s ability to deliver emotional storytelling while pushing the boundaries of modern country music. He followed it with the upbeat, rough-and-rowdy “Said No Country Boy Ever,” a song packed with humor and heart. The track also features a standout group of Brice’s longtime friends—Jamey Johnson, Randy Houser, Jerrod Niemann, Dallas Davidson, and Rob Hatch—collectively known as The Traler Park. Together, they raise a glass to the comforts and traditions of country living, from mama’s fried chicken to long workdays and the excitement of hunting season.
Fans can expect these new songs—as well as classics like “Rumor,” “I Don’t Dance,” “Memory I Don’t Mess With,” and “Hard to Love”—to shine onstage throughout the Sunriser Tour. With Brice’s seasoned band, his natural rapport with audiences, and the energy brought by Kissel and Tyler, each stop promises to feel both intimate and electrifying.
As anticipation builds, Brice hints that even more new music is on the way, ensuring 2026 will be a milestone year for the acclaimed singer-songwriter.
