The Music Of Randy Travis Tour Featuring James Dupre And The Original Randy Travis Band Coming This Fall

Randy Travis, in partnership with Outback Presents, is proud to announce The Music of Randy Travis Tour featuring country singer and his co-star in The Price, James Dupré. The Country Music Hall of Fame member's long-time touring band, consisting of Steve Hinson, David Johnson, Lance Dary, Bill Cook, Joe Van Dyke and Herb Shucher along with longtime tour manager Jeff Davis will rejoin "Hoss," as they affectionately call Travis, on the road for the first time since right before his stroke in 2013.

The show will consist of Dupré and the band performing all 16 of his iconic number ones including "On The Other Hand," "Forever and Ever, Amen" and "Three Wooden Crosses." Randy Travis will make a special appearance and VIP passes are available in most markets that include a meet and greet with the country icon, himself. Tickets for the shows will be listed at RandyTravis.com as they go on sale.

"We are incredibly excited to be back on the road and give Randy's fans a chance to hear his music live again, and who better to sing his many hits than James Dupré?" said Mary and Randy Travis.

Travis recently released Forever and Ever, Amen: A Memoir of Music, Faith and Braving the Storms of Life which has outpaced projections and has been featured on TODAY, the 700 Club, People Magazine, Billboard and more. The book is available at most online retailers as well as Barnes and Noble, Cracker Barrel, Books-a-Million and more. Always wanting to please his fans, the long-time Grand Ole Opry star also dropped two never-before heard singles this summer, "One in a Row" and "Lead Me Home."

About James Dupré
James Dupré was born and raised in Bayou Chicot, Louisiana. Named one of Rolling Stone's "10 New Country Artists You Need To Know," Dupré has over 10 million views to his credit on YouTube, with three charted singles on the Billboard Indicator chart, including "Another Love Song," "Hurt Good," and "Stoned to Death." The one-time aspiring meteorologist turned paramedic became a YouTube sensation in 2007 upon posting cover videos of country songs. His pitch-perfect, baritone voice and high engagement through social media platforms like YouTube led to an invitation to perform on Ellen. Shortly after, he released his debut album It's All Happening in 2010, which charted on Billboard. After signing a record deal with Warner Music Nashville in 2011, Dupré began performing and touring full-time through 2014. Shortly thereafter Dupré appeared on NBC's The Voice, Season 9, where a four-chair turn ultimately landed him a spot on Adam Levine's team. The father of four, with another one on the way, made his acting debut in the film, The Price, playing the son of a country singer, portrayed by Randy Travis.
