The full picture of Hannah Harper's post-American Idol road is now here - and it looks exactly like the artist she said she wanted to be.
In her own words right after winning: "Theaters and small towns. It's not anything huge, but it's something that's close to my heart - small communities that I get to storytell with." The full String Cheese Tour schedule, now live at hannahharpermusic.com, delivers exactly that.
The tour runs from June through November 14, with Harper spending the next several months on the road playing festivals, amphitheaters, and smaller venues across the country. Most dates are concentrated in the Midwest, with stops across Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Georgia.
Here are the confirmed dates:
- June 2 - Nashville, TN @ Grand Ole Opry House (w/ Carrie Underwood, Avery Anna)
- June 5 - Mountain View, AR @ Ozark Folk Center State Park
- June 20 - Willow Springs, MO @ Pine Meadows Concert (hometown show)
- June 27 - Mineral Point, MO @ Big River Outdoors
- July 3 - Bunker, MO @ Mid American Bash 2026
- July 18 - Louisville, KY @ Kosair Live (w/ Dan + Shay, Bailey Zimmerman, Gabby Barrett)
- August 7 - Harrison, AR @ Creekside Amp
- August 9 - Lebanon, MO @ Kenneth E. Cowan Civic Center
- September 15 - Poplar Bluff, MO @ Women Aware Conference
- September 30 & October 1 - Pigeon Forge, TN @ Dollywood
- October 3 - Viburnum, MO @ Old Miners Day
- November 14 - Bartlett, TN @ Bartlett Performing Arts & Conference Center
The hometown stop in Willow Springs on June 20 - and the July 3 date in Bunker, where she was raised - will mean something different than any other date on the list. It was in those rural Missouri towns, reheating coffee for the third time and stepping over Hot Wheels, that she wrote the song that changed her life. Coming home with a trophy and a tour is its own kind of testimony.
The July 18 Louisville date places her on a major festival bill alongside Dan + Shay, Bailey Zimmerman, and Gabby Barrett - a sign that Harper's profile is already growing well beyond the Idol winner lane.
She has said this story is still just beginning. The tour schedule suggests she means it.
