Lyal Strickland, an Americana singer-songwriter from the Ozarks, performs live at the Holiday Inn in Austin as part of his 2026 tour.
Lyal Strickland plays the Holiday Inn on Wednesday, September 23, at 1 PM. It's a mid-day show, part of a twelve-date tour running from September 21 to November 9, and it falls under the SouthWest Regional Folk Alliance 2026.
Strickland is an Americana singer-songwriter from Buffalo, Missouri, and his music is tied to the rural landscapes of the Ozarks and the realities of small-town life. His lyrics deal with struggle, resilience, and the human spirit, and he's the artist behind the album Shooter of Truth. He's known for a raspy voice that can be both soothing and raw with emotion, telling individual stories that capture the soul of working-class America. His songs have been described as gripping, cinematic dispatches from a world where desperation is met with relentless determination.
Between songwriting and touring, he raises grass-fed beef, carrying on the musical heritage of his native Missouri Ozarks. He works across Americana, Red Dirt, Alternative Country, Country, and Folk, so the set should pull from a few different corners of that world. The Austin date is one stop on a tour that stretches from late September through early November, and it's part of the SouthWest Regional Folk Alliance 2026.
