September 15, 2026—Grammy, CMA, and Americana Music Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Brandy Clark will embark on her “Take Flight World Tour” next year with 28 dates announced in support of her highly-anticipated new music.
Tickets for the new dates will be available for pre-sale tomorrow, September 16 at 10:00am local time, with general on-sale following this Friday, September 18 at 10:00am local time. Full details can be found at www.brandyclarkmusic.com/tour.
The tour continues a landmark year for Clark, whose new song, “American Roots,” will be released this Friday, September 18 via Reprise Records. Written by Clark, Michael Pollack (“Dear Insecurity,” “Flowers”) and Griff Clawson, the song draws inspiration from Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land” and celebrates America as a place of unity, reflecting on shared experiences and connections. It has been met with an overwhelming response when performed live, eliciting spontaneous mid-song standing ovations.
The new music arrives on the heels of Clark being named one of The New York Times’ “The 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters,” further cementing her place as one of the most respected and influential voices in modern music.
Clark appears on the list alongside acclaimed songwriters Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne, with The New York Times praising the trio as “Music Row pros par excellence, brilliant practitioners of the time-honored tradecraft: crisp hooks, witty wordplay, brisk storytelling, songs that click and whir like little machines” and goes on to call Clark, “a star recording artist in her own right.”
One of her generation’s most esteemed songwriters and musicians, Clark earned Best Americana Performance at the 66th Grammy Awards and Song of the Year at the 2024 Americana Honors & Awards for “Dear Insecurity,” a deeply personal track featuring 11-time Grammy winner Brandi Carlile. The song appears on her self-titled album, produced by Carlile and widely hailed as a defining work, with outlets like Forbes, Variety, and Billboard praising her exceptional songwriting and vocal artistry.
Beyond her solo work, Clark’s songwriting credits include standout tracks such as “A Beautiful Noise,” the Grammy-nominated duet performed by Carlile and Alicia Keys, Kacey Musgraves’ “Follow Your Arrow,” and Miranda Lambert’s “Mama’s Broken Heart.” She also composed the music for the hit musical comedy, Shucked, alongside her longtime collaborator McAnally. For the show, Clark won Outstanding Music at the 67th Drama Desk Awards and was nominated for Best Original Score at the 76th Tony Awards, where Shucked received nine nominations overall. Most recently, she performed “Trailblazer (Dream Chaser Version)” at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards alongside Reba McEntire and Lukas Nelson—a reimagined take on her Grammy-nominated song “Trailblazer,” originally co-written with Lainey Wilson and Lambert.
