Sugarland<\/a>\u00a0will return in 2026. The country duo, comprised of Jennifer Nettles<\/a> and Kristian Bush<\/a>, have announced\u00a0their 2026 Ride or Die Tour, a 26-date trek that will span across October and November.<\/p>\n The tour hinges on the 20th anniversary of the band’s\u00a0Enjoy the Ride<\/em> album,\u00a0which\u00a0was their breakout project. Its lead single “Want To” became Sugarland’s first No. 1\u00a0hit on the U.S. country charts, and another single, “Settlin’,” made it to the top of the charts, too.<\/p>\n “Enjoy the Ride<\/em> was such a turning point album,” Nettles explains in a statement.<\/p>\n “It literally catapulted us onto the ride of our lives with a carnival of hits and a life on The Road,” she continues. “We couldn’t let its anniversary pass without marking it as something special with our fans, live and on tour!”<\/p>\n Sugarland have been on hiatus for\u00a0chunks of the past 15 years, and they haven’t released a full album of new music since putting out\u00a0Bigger<\/em> in 2018.<\/p>\n After five successful albums across the 2000s, Sugarland announced a hiatus in 2012. During that time, they both released solo material.<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>:\u00a0Why Did Kristen Hall Sue Sugarland After She Left the Band?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The duo reunited in 2017 and announced they were working on new material. They released their single “Still the Same” at the end of that year, followed by their\u00a0Bigger<\/em> album \u2014 including the Taylor Swift<\/a>-penned song “Babe” \u2014 in 2018.<\/p>\n Since then, Sugarland has toured with Little Big Town, appeared for one-off performances now and again and released an EP called\u00a0There Goes the Neighborhood<\/em> in August of 2024.<\/p>\n It’s not clear. Their newly-announced tour\u00a0is focused on the anniversary of their\u00a0Enjoy the Ride<\/em> album, not on any upcoming projects.<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>: The Saddest Country Songs By Women, Ranked<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n However, Sugarland have never definitively said that they don’t plan to make more music together, and despite their hiatus and unofficial breaks, they’ve never called it quits as a band. So it’s entirely possible that new music from the duo could be in the works.<\/p>\n Here are the dates that have been announced for Sugarland’s fall 2026 Ride or Die Tour:<\/p>\n Oct. 1 \u2014 St. Augustine, Fla. @ St. Augustine Amphitheatre<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 2 \u2014 Charleston, S.C. @ North Charleston Coliseum<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 3 \u2014 Greensboro, N.C. @ First Horizon Coliseum<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 8 \u2014 Champaign, Ill. @ State Farm Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 9 \u2014 Green Bay, Wisc. @ Resch Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 10 \u2014 La Crosse, Wisc. @ La Crosse Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 13 \u2014 Sioux City, Iowa @ Tyson Event Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 16 \u2014 Rapid City, S.D. @ Summit Arena<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 17 \u2014 New Town, N.D. @ 4 Bears Casino<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 18 \u2014 Grand Forks, N.D. @ Alerus Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 20 \u2014 Duluth, Minn. @ ASMOIL Arena<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 22 \u2014 Cedar Rapids, Iowa @ Alliant Energy PowerHouse<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 23 \u2014 Rockford, Ill. @ BMO Harris Bank Center<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Oct. 24 \u2014 Battle Creek, Mich. @ Firekeepers Casino* (Ages 21+ only.
