Benny G Following Grand Ole Opry Debut With Headline Shows

By Editorial Staff | Published: Apr 25, 2026 7:12 PM EDT

Hot the heels of making his debut on the Grand Ole Opry, Benny G has announced that he will playing a number of headline shows in September and October.

Free Flight Records had these details: With stops in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Charlotte, Atlanta, Nashville and Chicago, the WHEN YOU KNOW YOU KNOW TOUR mark the latest chapter in the exciting new talent's breakthrough year.

Benny recently made his Grand Ole Opry debut following an invitation from his hero and legendary Opry member Vince Gill. To make the evening even more special, Gill invited Benny to join him for a performance of his 1994 classic "Whenever You Come Around."

He also just released his new EP, When You Know You Know. Taken as a whole, the six-song project forms a loose narrative about the rise and fall of a relationship, making for an engaging set that showcases a young performer as he confidently hits his stride. Nearly every song was recorded live in single takes, reflecting the raw musicality that drives Benny's instinctive, no-frills artistry. Entertainment Focus praised, "When You Know You Know heralds the arrival of a talent with heaps of potential." Benny has been steadily gaining industry attention, as Holler echoes "With a style that straddles the boundaries of R&B, soul and country, and that at times feels Stapleton-esque and at others comes off as more akin to Justin Timberlake, the possibilities are endless for Benny G."

In addition to the newly announced headline dates and select support for Billy Currington, the 20-year-old wunderkind will open for Ty Myers on all dates of THE LEGAL TOUR from June to November. He is headlining select Whiskey Jam Tailgate Parties in conjunction with Luke Combs' stadium tour; has been on the road with Jack Wharff Band, Sons of Legion, Congress The Band, Penelope Road, and more; made his debut at C2C in Germany and London; and will make his first appearance at CMA Fest this summer.
