Waylon Wyatt has announced details of his headline world tour, which features a show in 3Olympia Theatre Dublin

Following the announcement of his debut album Dustpiles, 19-year-old Arkansas country artist Waylon Wyatt has announced details of his headline world tour, which features a show in 3Olympia Theatre on 25th November 2026.

Waylon Wyatt is a 19-year-old folk-country artist from Hackett, Arkansas, known for his raw, red-dirt take on Americana. He began writing songs as a kid, often after long days working construction with his father. Waylon recorded and produced his debut EP Til The Sun Goes Down in the rec room of his childhood home. The EP has amassed over 225 million streams and two of its standout tracks “Arkansas Diamond” and “Jailbreak” have earned RIAA Gold certifications.

Drawing inspiration from modern trailblazers like Tyler Childers and Zach Bryan, Waylon has cemented his place as a “rising country star to know” (GRAMMY.com) and was named one of VEVO’s 2026 DSCVR Artists to Watch. He has played sold-out stages worldwide, headlining major U.S. venues and delivering standout performances at Stagecoach, Cavendish Beach Music Festival, and FairWell Festival, as well as joining Zach Bryan at London’s Hyde Park. Waylon continues his global momentum with appearances at C2C Festival across Europe, CMC Rocks in Australia, select North American dates supporting Sam Barber, and major festivals including Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo. Waylon’s highly anticipated debut album Dustpiles will arrive in July alongside an accompanying headline world tour.

Waylon says of the tour: “The Dustpiles World Tour is the biggest and best one for me yet!! Gonna be traveling far and wide across this giant moving sphere. So much is in store for the Dustpiles Tour!!” Dustpiles is a deeply personal collection of songs exploring love and loss, revealing Waylon at his most introspective and vulnerable. Widely recognized for his acclaimed songwriting, the project also marks a creative turning point for the artist. For the first time, Waylon steps outside his comfort zone to collaborate with a diverse group of songwriters and producers, including Carter Faith, Joe Becker (Sam Barber), Tofer Brown (Tim McGraw, Old Dominion), and Anderson East (Miranda Lambert, The Red Clay Strays, Ty Myers) to name a few.

Waylon shared the project’s latest single “But There Was a Time .” Built around slide guitar, dark acoustic textures, and Waylon’s raw vocal delivery, the track explores the feeling of reconnecting with someone who once meant everything to you, only to realize the relationship may not have carried the same weight for them.
