Parker McCollum had fans buzzing this week after wiping his Instagram and changing his profile picture to black. The social media overhaul comes right as the superstar announces a major update to his 2025 headlining tour, including brand-new dates.

While the chart-topping singer/songwriter has yet to address the social media shakeup, he announced early Friday that he’s opted to rebrand his current tour, changing the name from the What Kinda Man Tour to the Parker McCollum Tour. This move comes as he continues to draw inspiration from his roots, reflecting on the legacy he’s built while touring the Red Dirt Country scene in his home state of Texas.

The newly added dates for the Parker McCollum Tour will feature special guests Ashley Cooke, Corey Smith, Hudson Westbrook, Kameron Marlowe, Laci Kaye Booth and Vincent Mason on select shows. See a complete list of newly added dates below.
Fans are anxiously awaiting Parker McCollum’s new album. His latest single, “What Kinda Man,” continues to climb the charts at country radio and comes on the heels of his four consecutive No. 1 singles: “Pretty Heart,” “To Be Loved By You,” “Handle On You,” and “Burn It Down.”
McCollum is set to take the stage tonight for his third consecutive SOLD OUT show at the legendary RODEOHOUSTON. Fans can expect an unforgettable night as he delivers a concert experience to remember.
