Through Berty Boy Productions, Kreischer oversees hit podcasts and series including Bertcast, Something’s Burning, and 2 Bears, 1 Cave (with Tom Segura), commanding over 16 million fans and 4 billion impressions. He also founded the Fully Loaded Comedy Festival, a touring juggernaut that’s expanded to stadiums, arenas, and sold-out cruises. In 2024, Kreischer and Segura launched Por Osos Vodka, an award-winning, rapidly expanding spirits brand. Kreischer also starred in and produced Sony Pictures’ The Machine—a feature film adaptation of his legendary stand-up story—which broke into Netflix’s Global Top 10 Films upon release in 2023. His Netflix scripted comedy seriesFree Bert debuted in January 2026 and quickly broke into Netflix’s U.S. and global Top 10. The show drew millions of viewers in its first weeks, ranking among the platform’s most-watched series worldwide. Free Bert was quickly renewed for a season 2 which will start production this summer. Today, Bert is on his Permission To Party World Tour and continues to blend comedy, business, and culture into one of the most recognizable personal brands in entertainment today.

Robert Plant with Saving Grace and Suzi Dian

Robert Plant with Saving Grace and Suzi Dian at Vina Robles

Third tour leg, in celebration of critically acclaimed album Saving Grace, set to perform at Vina Robles Amphitheatre on September 29. On Saving Grace, which was six years in the making, Plant and this group of distinguished musicians—vocalist Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, banjo and string player Matt Worley, and cellist Barney Morse-Brown—explore the evolution of roots music both vintage and modern. The band members were drawn together by a shared love of roots music—blues, folk, gospel, country, and the sounds that lay in between. Saving Grace began at Plant’s home on the Welsh borderlands in 2019; this new collective of like-minded collaborators had been experimenting for barely a year, even serving as an unheralded opening act on a handful of dates for Fairport Convention, when the pandemic intervened and any formal plans were temporarily shelved. Once protocols permitted, Plant and Saving Grace began to record informally in a barn setup or outdoors, then booked themselves in small venues without fanfare. The self-produced album breathes fresh life into songs by Bob Mosley (Moby Grape), Blind Willie Johnson, The Low Anthem, Martha Scanlan, Sarah Siskind, and more.

Alison Krauss & Union Station

Alison Krauss & Union Station at Vina Robles

27x GRAMMY® Award-winner Alison Krauss has announced that the hugely successful Alison Krauss & Union Station Featuring Jerry Douglas ARCADIA Tour will return in 2026. The wide-ranging headline run gets underway with a two-night stand at Durham, NC’s DPAC on April 24-25, 2026 and then travels North America through early October. Highlights include shows at such historic venues as Vienna, VA’s Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts (July 16), two-night stands at Shipshewana, IN’s Blue Gate Performing Arts Center (June 9-10) and Bonner, MT’s KettleHouse Amphitheater (August 20-21), a three-night residency at Nashville, TN’s famed Ryman Auditorium (September 18-20), and one night at Paso Robles, California’s Vina Robles Amphitheatre (October 2). Tickets are available for Vina Robles Amphitheatre via Ticketmaster, beginning Friday, December 12 at 10AM (local). Support on most dates comes from Theo Lawrence, with The Cox Family appearing as special guests at Shreveport, Louisiana’s Shreveport Municipal Auditorium on April 29. In addition, Alison Krauss & Union Station Featuring Jerry Douglas are set for a number of top-billed festival appearances, including Wilkesboro, NC’s MerleFest (April 26) and Cumberland, MD’s DelFest (May 24). The upcoming dates follow Alison Krauss & Union Station’s hugely successful Arcadia 2025 Tour, a sold-out headline run that marked the legendary group’s first tour together in over a decade. The marathon tour – which saw the live debut of award-winning vocalist and guitarist Russell Moore among the esteemed ranks of Union Station – was met by critical applause across the United States and Canada, with The Dallas Observer declaring, “Alison Krauss and Union Station provided an embarrassment of riches… (their) performance was simply a peerless collection of artists doing what they do best, conjuring an alchemy so transporting that time almost becomes irrelevant.” The Arcadia 2025 Tour celebrated the arrival of Alison Krauss & Union Station’s eighth studio LP and first new release in over 14 years, Arcadia, available everywhere now via Down The Road Records. Self-produced by Alison Krauss & Union Station, the album collects ten new songs that transcend time, reveal beautiful and tragic truths, and serve as contemporary reflections of history, penned by Robert Lee Castleman, Viktor Krauss, Jeremy Lister, Bob Lucas, JD McPherson, Sarah Siskind, and other modern masters. With new member Russell Moore – frontman for the chart-topping group IIIrd Tyme Out and the International Bluegrass Music Association’s most awarded male vocalist of all time – on co-lead vocals, guitar, and mandolin, Krauss (fiddle, lead vocal), Jerry Douglas (Dobro, lap steel, vocals), Ron Block (banjo, guitar, vocals), and Barry Bales (bass, vocals) once again bring their extraordinary individual talents together into a singularly unstoppable force. Highlighted by songs like “Looks Like the End of the Road” and “Granite Mills,” Arcadia further expands the immaculately crafted, endlessly surprising sound that Alison Krauss & Union Station have long been known and loved for, reaffirming why the group remains one of the most influential, widely celebrated acts of the past four decades. Arcadia – which like its 2011 predecessor, Paper Airplane, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s “Top Bluegrass Albums” chart upon its March release – was greeted with worldwide critical praise along with three 2026 GRAMMY® Award nominations for Best Bluegrass Album, Best American Roots Performance (honoring the standout track, “Richmond on the James”), and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. “Arcadia reconvenes and reconfigures a band that has transformed the sound of modern bluegrass by constantly drawing new subtleties from old-time roots,” wrote the New York Times. “Union Station can easily muster the quick-fingered virtuosity required for upbeat, foot-stomping bluegrass tunes that punctuate its albums and live sets. But what makes the band so distinctive is its quietly incandescent restraint: the hushed concentration it summons behind Krauss’s pristinely melancholy soprano, which can sound haunted even when she sings about true love.” “As ever, the sonic palette is richly clean, the harmonies stacked, and Jerry Douglas’s Dobro an empathetic, keening presence in constant dialogue with the singers,” declared MOJO in its four-starred rave. “(Krauss’s) plaintive, crystalline soprano alternating songs with Moore’s high lonesome tenor evokes what D.H. Lawrence memorably called ‘the essential American soul… hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer.’” In addition, Alison Krauss & Union Station recently sat down with CBS News’ Anthony Mason for an exclusive CBS Mornings feature interview discussing Arcadia, their long-awaited reunion, and more (streaming HERE).

Killer Quen

Killer Quen at Vina Robles

Get ready for a royal night of rock and roll as Killer Queen, the internationally acclaimed tribute to Queen, brings the legendary band’s iconic catalog to Vina Robles Amphitheatre on Sunday, October 4, 2026. ABOUT KILLER QUEENLead singer Patrick Myers said “It's been an amazing journey. That first show changed my life. We thought our band would last maybe a summer at the most but it's a very addictive thing performing these songs. The concerts grew and grew and we've ended up playing and selling out the same arenas that Queen played at their peak. It's been quite a surreal ride. Becoming regular performers Red Rocks Arena in America is another highlight . The Beatles, U2, Springsteen, Dylan all played on that stage. It's really got it's own kind of magic going on there” Killer Queen's first public shows were at London University, following in the footsteps of the real Queen who had played their first shows there decades earlier. Killer Queen's UK popularity grew to such an extent they soon secured a residency in London's Strand Theatre attracting nationwide BBC coverage - the first tribute to have a show in the West End. The band's reputation continued to grow both in the UK and abroad leading to an awards ceremony in Leicester Square, hosted by Suggs from Madness who presented them with the award for “Worldwide Best Tribute Band”. They also scored a number one hit when they they were asked to recreate Queen's harmonies for “The Real Life” with Fatboy Slim. By now they were in demand in European arenas playing Ahoy and Forest National Arena where Queen filmed the concert set piece videos such as Hammer To Fall and Don't Stop Me Now. Killer Queen then joined forces with Bjorn Again and The Bootleg Beatles for a Waverley Stadium show in Edinburgh. It was this performance that led to the band being selected to represent Queen in a re-staged tribute LiveAid concert held by Sir Bob Geldof in Malta. They performed with him at his arena charity concert to raise funds for the young homeless people. Killer Queen set their sights on America including the awe inspiring Red Rocks Arena in Colorado – one of the countries most prestigious venues. The Beatles, Springsteen, U2 have all played there and the band are delighted it's become a regular sell out fixture on Killer Queen's tour sheet. 2025 saw the band play packed arenas across Europe : Stavangar in Norway and Cardiff, Nottingham, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Leeds in the UK. 2026 includes an arena show in Newcastle a three moth tour Amercia and a return to the amazing Red Rocks – 10 years after their first show there.

A son of Stephenville, Texas, Westbrook was baptized by Red Dirt and raised on George Strait, Turnpike Troubadours, Parker McCollum, Koe Wetzel, and Tracy Lawrence. After a 2024 splash debut with first-ever release, “Take It Slow,” Westbrook strung together a series of grassroots hits while still enrolled at Texas Tech University, including Texas radio chart-topper, “Two Way Drive,” and chart-topping debut single to country radio, “House Again.” Revitalizing the organic country he was raised on while refusing to be held down by his roots, Westbrook’s “traditional country sounds and timeless songwriting” (Billboard) have become his calling card, fully realized on his Top 10, 17-track debut album, Texas Forever, and expanded upon on follow up EP, Exclusive, out now. Taking the spirit of Texas country music far beyond state lines, Westbrook is headlining sold-out tours nationwide, alongside opening gigs with George Strait, Parker McCollum, Morgan Wallen, Bailey Zimmerman, Midland, Ian Munsick, and many more. Amassing over 1.5 billion global streams in just under two years of releasing original music, Westbrook is a 2026 ACM New Male Artist of the Year nominee and a member of the 2026 Opry NextStage Class. He was named a Billboard Country Rookie of the Month, a 2025 Artist to Watch by Spotify, Country Now, Holler, The Country Wire, and a SiriusXM all-genre Five for 2025. Country Central predicts: "Westbrook’s rise shows potential to lead a new generation of artists in the Texas country realm." ABOUT KENNY WHITMIREGeorgia-born crooner Kenny Whitmire is cutting through the noise with a “rich, wine-smooth vocal… steeped in timeless country sounds reminiscent of Randy Travis and Keith Whitley” (Billboard). The everyman upstart writes, sings, lives, and breathes traditional country music, with a classic bent and undeniable beer joint appeal, drawing inspiration from predecessors like Merle Haggard and Daryle Singletary. Relocating to Nashville in 2022 from Woodstock, GA after one semester of college, Whitmire fell quickly into Music City’s songwriting community, sharpening plainspoken-yet-profound story songs and a quietly confident vocal, and honing in on his authentic take on the throwback sound he grew up on. Fueled by an unexpected combination of a rabid, grassroots fandom and Charlie Puth-fueled internet magic, Whitmire is ascending to new heights, with his debut EP, Fool In A King Size Bed, out now. Catch Kenny on the road throughout 2026, supporting Tracy Lawrence, Billy Currington, Ian Munsick, and more. ABOUT ETHAN BURDICKEthan Burdick is a 21-year-old singer-songwriter based in Nashville, TN. Originally from Vancouver, WA, he got his start playing drums in marching band, jazz band and at local gigs before discovering a passion for songwriting and performing. After being discovered on TikTok Live by Back Blocks Founder & CEO Rakiyah Marshall, Burdick moved to Nashville in 2025 to pursue music full time. Since releasing his debut single, "I Get The Picture," in April 2026, he has generated more than five million views on TikTok ahead of its release, earned playlist support from SiriusXM Hits 1, been named one of the channel's coveted Hits 1 To Watch artists, and appeared on a billboard in New York City's Times Square. He followed with the release of his second single, "Hold You," and has shared the stage with Jelly Roll and Hudson Westbrook. Inspired by artists including Lizzy McAlpine, Noah Kahan, Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber, Burdick pairs emotionally driven songwriting with a voice that's as compelling live as it is in the studio, drawing on a perspective shaped in part by growing up with five sisters.

Dustin Lynch

Dustin Lynch at Vina Robles

Multi-platinum artist Dustin Lynch brings his fall tour to Paso Robles on Sunday, October 18. ABOUT DUSTIN LYNCH Dustin Lynch has “built one of the most consistent recording careers in modern country music” (Billboard), achieving 10 numbers ones; four Top 5 albums; MULTI-PLATINUM status with 10 RIAA-certified singles; and tallying over 5 BILLION cumulative global streams. Rolling out new music beginning with the chill summer jam “Easy To Love,” Dustin marked his milestone 10th number one with “Chevrolet (feat. Jelly Roll)” from his sixth studio album Killed The Cowboy (BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville). The follow-up to Blue In The Sky, which delivered the history-making 2X PLATINUM, six-week number one “Thinking ‘Bout You (feat. MacKenzie Porter)”—the most-played song at Country radio in 2022, landing at number one on Country Aircheck/Mediabase and number two on the Billboard Year-End Country Airplay charts—and featured hits number one “Stars Like Confetti” and “Party Mode.” Lynch has headlined packed venues to sold-out crowds like his Killed The Cowboy Tour, in addition to touring with country’s biggest names including Kane Brown, Luke Bryan, Brad Paisley, and Blake Shelton. Hosting his see-and-be-seen pool parties for the last decade, Lynch marked Wynn Nightlife’s first-ever country music artist residency in Las Vegas with his 2025 club set and returned to the iconic venue in 2026. Most recently, he expanded his sound with the Club Set Remixes EP—a genre-blending project featuring high-energy dance remixes of his biggest hits by top DJs including MOONLGHT and MC4D. With his latest releases, Lynch expands his original EDM offerings with “Die Living” a collaboration with ILLENIUM and David Guetta, “Home To You,” a track with MC4D that carries his unmistakable country undertone into the global dance scene, and “Getaway Car,” a track that captures a full-throttle rush where country drive meets escape velocity, built for fast decisions, open roads, and disappearing into the night with no destination required. Since his PLATINUM breakout “Cowboys and Angels” in 2012, the Tennessee native has earned industry recognition as a Grand Ole Opry member, as well as high-profile nominations for the Academy of Country Music Awards, American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, and CMT Music Awards.
