The world of country music just got its biggest news of the decade. Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Caroline Boyer Bryan, and Katy Perry have officially announced the 2026 “One Last Ride” Tour — a once-in-a-lifetime musical journey that promises to revive, reimagine, and reignite the soul of country music for a new generation.
A Dream Lineup, A Farewell to an Era
Announced live this morning from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, the “One Last Ride” Tour will unite five of music’s most dynamic forces — blending classic country storytelling with modern pop energy and heartland rock power.
“This tour isn’t just about music,” Luke Bryan said with a smile. “It’s about legacy — about what country music means to us, and to the people who’ve lived their lives to these songs.”
For Blake Shelton and Jason Aldean, it’s a chance to return to their roots while sharing the stage with friends who’ve defined the genre for two decades. But the biggest surprise of all? Caroline Boyer Bryan, Luke’s wife, will make her official stage debut, performing a series of heartfelt duets that celebrate love, resilience, and family — a moment fans have waited years to see.
Pop powerhouse Katy Perry, who has long shared a deep respect for Nashville’s music culture after her time on American Idol, called the collaboration “a bridge between worlds — a moment where storytelling and soul meet.”
