About Dan + Shay and The Young Tour

Dan + Shay is the country music duo of Dan Smyers (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) and Shay Mooney (Natural Dam, Arkansas). The two met in 2012, started writing together in Nashville, and signed with Warner Music Nashville the next year. Their 2014 debut single 19 You + Me reached the country top 20, and the duo's 2014 debut album Where It All Began introduced their signature blend of tight vocal harmonies, polished production, and country-pop crossover songwriting.

The breakthrough came with their 2018 self-titled third album Dan + Shay, which produced the smash Tequila -- a song that earned them the 2019 Grammy for Best Country Duo/Group Performance and confirmed them as one of the most commercially successful country duos of the streaming era. The follow-up Good Things (2021) produced more crossover hits, and the 2024 album Bigger Houses kept the momentum rolling with singles including Save Me the Trouble. The duo has won the Academy of Country Music Award for Vocal Duo of the Year seven consecutive years.

Across their career, Dan + Shay have racked up multiple platinum and diamond certifications, sold-out arena tours, and major crossover collaborations -- most notably 10,000 Hours with Justin Bieber, the 2019 release that earned them their second Grammy. Other collaborations have included Tim McGraw, Tyler Hubbard, and a recurring stint as coaches on The Voice. Their songwriting and vocal blend have become a defining sound of contemporary country.

The new album Young arrives August 21, 2026 on Warner Music Nashville. The lead single Say So launched the rollout in May 2026 and has been described as one of the duo's most emotionally direct songs to date. Press around the album has highlighted a tighter, more reflective set of songs that reflects on time, family, and growing up in the spotlight as a duo. The Young Tour is the headlining run in support of the album.

The Young Tour itinerary covers more than 25 dates across North America from September through early November. The headline run kicks off September 11 at the Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana and wraps November 7 at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California. The amphitheater-heavy routing puts the tour at warm-night outdoor venues for most of the early dates before shifting to arenas for the late fall stretch.

Notable venues on the run include the iconic Northwell at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh (the seaside amphitheater on Long Island), PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, Mohegan Sun Arena, the Pine Knob Music Theatre outside Detroit, Schottenstein Center in Columbus, PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh (a hometown date for Dan Smyers), TD Pavilion at the Mann Center in Philadelphia, Ameris Bank Amphitheatre in Alpharetta, MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, the Honda Center in Anaheim, and the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View. A pre-tour festival date at Kosair Live in Louisville on July 18 with Bailey Zimmerman and Richard Max rounds out the schedule.

Tyler Hubbard, formerly of Florida Georgia Line and now a major solo country artist in his own right, provides direct support on most dates. Hubbard's 2023 self-titled solo debut produced the smash hit Dancin' in the Country, and his 2024 follow-up Strong has continued the momentum. Josh Ross, the Canadian country breakout with platinum hits Trouble and Single Again, opens most dates as the third act on the bill. The triple-bill country lineup makes for a stacked four-hour evening of contemporary country.

What makes a Dan + Shay show special is the focus on the vocal blend. With minimal stage gimmicks and an emphasis on the songwriting, the shows feel like a polished version of an intimate songwriter night even in 15,000-plus capacity amphitheaters. Expect close vocal harmonies, acoustic guitar moments mid-show, and the kind of singalong-heavy energy that country amphitheater crowds bring out best. The new Young material is expected to add a more reflective emotional weight to the live set.
