Drew Holcomb & the Neighbors have a hefty touring schedule for the remainder of 2023, beginning with an opening stint on Darius Rucker’s Starting Fires Tour that visits amphitheaters around the country through October 14. Throughout the fall, Holcomb and the Neighbors will embark on a headlining tour that takes them to a variety of theaters.
The band is coming equipped with new music, having released their album, Strangers No More, on June 7. When it comes to opening for Rucker, Holcomb says they plan to play fan favorites like “Dragons” and “Family.” He’s also looking forward to introducing audience members to the new batch of music.
“It’s going to be a lot of the big, fun songs because people are feeling good, it’s summertime,” Holcomb explains to American Songwriter of the band’s approach. “There’s a lot of new ears for us, so we’ll look forward to playing songs like ‘Find Your People,’ ‘All the Money in the World,’ ‘Dance with Everybody.'”
The Memphis, Tennessee, native also expects that many of their loyal fans will be attending the shows as they crisscross the country, many of whom have followed them throughout their more than 15-year career.

“I definitely subscribe to the school of thought, which is give the people what they want,” he continues. “One of the neat things about doing it as long as we have is people come to you at different points, and that point is sort of their main reference for your music. [We’re] trying to play songs from each season of our history while also really leaning heavy in on the new stuff because we’re really proud of it and I think it’s going to translate really well live.”
