Sierra Ferrell‘s Heavy Petal Tour kicks off tonight in Bozeman, Montana at Bobcat Stadium, marking the start of a sweeping 40-plus-date run across North America and Europe that will run through October. The Grammy-winning Americana artist is bringing her acclaimed 2024 album Trail of Flowers to stages nationwide, supported by The Brudi Brothers.

The Heavy Petal Tour Takes the Road

The Heavy Petal Tour represents Sierra Ferrell‘s most extensive tour yet, with the West Virginia-born singer bringing her roots-music sound to venues across the continent. The tour kicked off on May 30 in Portland, Oregon, and tonight’s Bozeman show marks one of the early U.S. stops on a schedule that will carry her through summer festivals and fall headlining dates. Following the Montana show, Ferrell will perform in Boulder, Colorado on June 6, then continue through Grand Rapids, Chicago, Columbus, and beyond.

The tour supports Trail of Flowers, her fourth studio album released in March 2024 on Rounder Records. The album blends Americana, bluegrass, and folk elements—genres that have defined Ferrell’s artistic identity since she emerged as one of roots music’s brightest voices. Her distinctive fusion of country, jazz, folk, and blues has earned her recognition across the industry.

A Grammy-Winning Artist on the Rise

Ferrell’s momentum heading into this tour is substantial. At the 67th Grammy Awards in February 2025, the Charleston native won four Grammy Awards, including Best Americana Album for Trail of Flowers. She also took home Best American Roots Performance and Best Americana Performance, cementing her status as a major force in contemporary roots music. These wins followed her 2024 Americana Music Awards, where she was named Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for the same record.

Growing up in small-town West Virginia, Ferrell left home in her early twenties to journey across the country, a period that shaped the storytelling and raw emotion central to her music. Her path to stardom has been unconventional but deliberate, building a devoted fanbase through relentless touring and album releases that critics and peers have praised for their authenticity and craft.

What to Expect on the Road

The Heavy Petal Tour will showcase material from Trail of Flowers alongside deeper cuts from her catalog. The album features songs like “American Dreaming” and “Dollar Bill Bar,” tracks that highlight her fiddle work and vocal range. With support from The Brudi Brothers, the tour promises full-band arrangements that bring the album’s produced sound to life on stage. Festival appearances, including stops at State Fayre Festival in the UK (June 26–28) and other major summer events, are woven into the tour schedule alongside traditional concert dates at theaters and outdoor amphitheaters.

Tickets are available through major platforms including Ticketmaster, Live Nation, and SeatGeek, with VIP packages offering early entry options at select venues. The tour runs through October 2026, with dates across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
