Silverada Embarks on 2025 “Unlit Matches” Tour


Reports of Silverada’s demise are greatly exaggerated. On the contrary, they just hit the road, and the world’s greatest country band will be filling hearts and melting faces on what they’re dubbing the “Unlit Matches Tour,” making reference to the most controversial like from Saving Country Music’s reigning Single of the Year, “Eagle Rare.”

They’ll be tearing through the deep south this April before returning to Texas, then head out to California in June, then run through the Midwest in July, all while hitting multipe festivals as well like Texas Music Revolution June 6th, and then Rock The Rind, the Braun Brothers Reunion, Unbroken Circle Fest, and Born & Raised later this year.

What some are wondering is who will be playing steel guitar after the exit of long-time wizard Zachary Moulton recently, or if they’ll even have a steel guitar player with them out on the road at all. Saving Country Music has learned that for select dates in April, Adam “Ditch” Kurtz, who previously played with American Aquarium, Sarah Shook and the Disarmers, and most recently has been touring with Joshua Ray Walker will be sliding into that spot.

The band recently said after the news of Zach’s departure and their first show afterwards, “Can’t lie, being in an old honky tonk last night w/ a renewed sense of drive + love for this journey – it was rowdy, sweaty, + the sold out crowd felt like they were gonna levitate clean off the ground with us – it’s a damn good feeling. When one door closes, another window opens.”

It’s really pretty simple. Silverada is the most entertaining band in country music to see live. So do it. Tickets can be purchased at silverada.com.
