Texan rising star Koe Wetzel is hitting the road in 2022 for a sprawling headlining tour in support of his latest studio album, Sellout.

The run launches on March 3 in Independence, Mo., and it'll keep him busy well into the summer, wrapping on July 23 in Corpus Christi, Texas.

In addition to the headlining dates, the batch of shows includes a handful of festival dates, including stops at Biloxi Crawfish Music Festival, Auburn Rodeo and Gordy's HWY30 Music Fest.

Arguably the biggest independent artist to come out of the Lone Star State since Aaron Watson, Wetzel brings a diverse blend of genres to his live set, as well as his studio albums. He cites rock mainstays like Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins as early influences, plus more traditional country legends like George Jones and Willie Nelson. Wetzel's hearty grassroots following got a mainstream country boost last March when he joined hitmaker Hardy for a short acoustic run in Texas.

Arriving in November 2020, his playfully-titled Sellout was Wetzel's first major-label outing and third full-length project all told. Tickets to his 2022 headlining show went on sale last Friday (Jan. 14).
