Alyssa Bonagura: America’s Backroads Tour

Alyssa Bonagura brings her unmistakable blend of heartland storytelling, soaring vocals and road‑worn charm to British shores in 2026 with America’s Backroads Tour — a run that promises to be her most personal UK journey yet. Arriving hot on the heels of her new album America’s Backroads, out June 5th, the tour finds Alyssa leaning fully into the wide‑open Americana spirit that has made her a favourite among UK country fans for more than a decade.

America’s Backroads Tour

There’s a particular kind of magic that happens when Alyssa Bonagura steps onto a UK stage. Her shows feel like campfire gatherings — warm, intimate, and full of stories that travel from Tennessee backroads to the heart of every listener in the room. On this new tour, she brings a fresh chapter of songs shaped by long drives, late‑night reflections, and the people who leave their mark along the way. Expect a setlist that moves effortlessly from acoustic tenderness to full‑band uplift, all carried by Alyssa’s unmistakable voice and her gift for turning lived moments into melodies that stay with you long after the lights come up.

America’s Backroads comprises 13 tracks recorded in Nashville, all co-written and produced by Alyssa, and features multi-Grammy award-nominated blues titan Joe Bonamassa. The album includes co-writes with hit songwriters Jeffrey Steele (Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts), David Sneddon (Lewis Capaldi), Theo Hutchcraft (Hurts), and is a collection of songs that showcase her musicality as a guitar player and singer, as well as the storytelling of her unique life experiences touring the backroads of America.

Explaining the origins of her new record, Alyssa musician shared: “I’ve been waiting 10 years to make this album. Being an independent artist is not easy. It takes a long time and a lot of hard work to save up for 1 day in the studio with the A-list Nashville players that you dream of working with.

If you like… you’ll love…

If you like the melodic warmth of Kacey Musgraves, the emotional clarity of Tenille Townes, or the rootsy sparkle of Jillian Jacqueline, you’ll find plenty to fall for in Alyssa’s new material. Reviewers of previous UK shows have praised her “effortless connection with the crowd,” her “songwriting that cuts straight to the soul,” and the “rare ability to make even a packed room feel like a front‑porch session.” Fans often leave describing her concerts as uplifting, authentic, and unexpectedly moving — the kind of nights that remind you why live music matters.

Looking ahead to the tour, Alyssa shared:

“A piece of my heart truly belongs to the UK. I cannot wait to get to these cities with my band & play for the UK country fans!!”
