WADE FORSTER ANNOUNCES FIRST NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINE TOUR New single “One Night Stand” out now. Wade Forster doesn’t just sing country music—he lives it. A working cattleman and professional rodeo cowboy from outback Queensland, Australia, Wade has built a career on grit, heart, and the kind of stories most country singers only dream of living. And now, after a breakthrough co-headline tour with The Lowdown Drifters in early 2025—including sold-out shows at Cain’s Ballroom and Gruene Hall—he’s saddling up for his first-ever North American headline tour. The run kicks off September 4 at The Valley Music Festival in Idaho and stretches across the U.S. with stops in Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas—including appearances at Born & Raised Music Festival and some of the most beloved grassroots venues in American country music. Wade’s American fanbase has grown fast and fierce, with over 50 million global streams, a viral moment at Fort Worth Stockyards—and all done as an independent artist. It all started with a rough cover of Tyler Childers’ Oneida back in 2021. The clip took off online, and with a few rodeo cheques in his back pocket, Wade booked time at Hillbilly Hut Studio to record what became his debut album, The Beginning. With no label or marketing push, that record organically found its way across the world—and now, so has he. Just great songs and a voice that cuts straight to the core. His music tells it exactly like it is: rodeo highs, outback heartbreak, and the battles most blokes don’t talk about. This tour also lands alongside Wade’s brand-new single One Night Stand. It tells the story of a two-timing cowboy whose escapades don’t end well—but he’s not losing sleep over it. Driven by a gritty, riff-heavy groove, it’s a swaggering country-rock track full of sharp one-liners and vivid imagery. The song balances wit and wildness, capturing the chaos of a night you probably shouldn’t have had—but definitely won’t forget.
