One’s a little bit country, the other’s a little bit rock and roll pop.
And, this summer, they’re coming together.
Thomas Rhett just announced that Niall Horan will be joining him for two shows on his 2026 ‘Soundtrack To Life Tour.’ Those concerts are scheduled to take place at:
Geodis Park
Nashville, TN
Thursday, July 9
Hersheypark Stadium
Hershey, PA
Saturday, July 18
Outside of this pair of gigs, Rhett has 27 additional shows planned (including one at Bethel, NY’s Bethel Woods Center for the Arts on Friday, Aug. 14) as part of his summer and fall run that stretches from July through October.
He’ll be joined by special guests ERNEST, Kashus Culpepper, Vincent Mason, Emily Ann Roberts, Conner Smith and more on select dates of the nationwide run.
“I’ve always believed a great song can take you right back to a moment – your first love, the last day of school, that summer you never wanted to end – and that’s what I hope the fans take away from our shows this summer,” Rhett said in a press release.
On top of the ‘Soundtrack To Life’ outing, Rhett will share the stage with Morgan Wallen on his ‘I’m The Problem Tour’ for four shows and lend his talents to Minnesota’s WE Fest (Aug. 6-8) and Montreal’s Lasso Music Festival (Aug. 15-16).
According to Set List FM, he typically performs 20-25 songs per show including fan favorites “Die a Happy Man,” “Marry Me,” “Make Me Wanna,” “After All The Bars Are Closed” and “What’s Your Country Song” among others.
“…Rhett’s set was seamless, packed with moments that hit both emotionally and energetically,” Celeb Secrets wrote about his July 2025 show at Holmdel, NJ’s PNC Bank Arts Center. “But no moment hit harder than the viral, real-life heartstring tugger mid-way through the show.”
“…after spotting a sign in the crowd that read “My mom is 87 years old and this is her first country concert,” Rhett did what only a true entertainer with a heart of gold would do: he stopped the show, jumped off the stage and over the barricade, and made his way through the crowd to hug the 87-year-old fan in person. She responded with a kiss on the cheek and the crowd erupted.”
As for Horan, these are the only performances he has lined up in ’26 at the time of publication.
His most recent record was 2023’s “The Show,” which he took all over North America in ’24.

Thomas Rhett new music
On Aug. 23, 2024, Rhett dropped his seventh studio album “About A Woman.”
The 14-track record, inspired by his wife Lauren and his commitment to her, is pure country pop. Think upbeat, radio-friendly jams that will shimmying your way to the dance floor and boot-scootin’ in no time.
Some of our favorite tunes here include the feel-good “After All The Bars Are Closed,” ultra-catchy “Back To Blue” and head bobbin’ bop “Boots” which will have you boogie-ing in no time.
“Somethin’ ‘Bout A Woman” is easily the best of the bunch though. The moody, blues-y and gutsy song is more classic rock — The Eagles and Beatles come to mind — than the rest of the album’s more traditional fare.
To hear for yourself, we suggest giving “About A Woman” a spin here.

The “What’s You Country Song” singer will be bringing along a special guest or two at all gigs.
