Brad Stuart & Brian Allison Europe Tour 2026
Michigan-born Brad Stuart has cultivated a rich blend of Americana, country, and roots music, marked by his gritty yet warm vocal style and an honest approach to songwriting. Now based in Nashville, Stuart draws inspiration from legends such as John Prine, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne, and Jason Isbell, weaving stories that balance humour, heartache, and hope. His reputation as a captivating live performer has been built through appearances in intimate listening rooms and larger festival stages alike, where his deeply personal storytelling resonates powerfully with audiences.
Stuart’s musical journey began across diverse projects, including hard rock and Americana groups, before he established his solo career. With collaborations featuring artists like Uncle Kracker and tours across North America and Europe, his experience spans an impressive spectrum of the music scene. A frequent performer at Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe, Stuart has shared stages with notable acts such as James Otto and Dustin Lynch, consistently earning acclaim for his compelling stage presence.
His 2024 album 33 Turns & A Needle, produced by Grammy Award winner Randy Kohrs, expertly fuses the soul and spirit of his Motown roots with timeless Americana storytelling. Themes of faith, family, and resilience course through the record, enhanced by contributions from accomplished Nashville and Detroit musicians. Beyond music creation, Stuart is deeply committed to accessibility, with many of his songs interpreted by his wife Elizabeth in American Sign Language, inspired by their youngest daughter who was born Deaf.
Joining Stuart on this European tour is acclaimed Americana singer-songwriter Brian Allison, a two-time Josie Music Award winner known for his heartfelt, family-rooted songs and warm, soulful delivery. Allison’s intimate storytelling and rich musical heritage make him an ideal companion for Stuart’s honest and gritty musical narratives.
