Alison Krauss & Union Station, Featuring Jerry Douglas, are thrilled to be joined by new touring member Jacob Burleson, a Nashville-based multi-instrumentalist who has gained renown for his work with such ensembles as Volume Five, East Nash Grass, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes, the Jason Carter Band, and Appalachian Roadshow.
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.
The Arcadia 2025 Tour celebrated the arrival of Alison Krauss & Union Station’s eighth studio LP and first new release in over 14 years, , 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 No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Bluegrass Albums chart upon its March release – was greeted 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.
