When a country music veteran who has spent the last year and a half fighting for his health finally steps back onto a listening-room stage, that’s more than a concert date — it’s a milestone. That’s exactly what’s on tap for Nashville audiences this fall, as singer-songwriter and SiriusXM host Dallas Wayne brings his catalog of original songs to one of Music City’s most hallowed venues.
Singer-Songwriter, SiriusXM radio personality returns to touring after cancer battle
NASHVILLE, TN, UNITED STATES, October 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Singer-songwriter Dallas Wayne will perform at The Bluebird Cafe in Nashville for an evening of songs and stories on Saturday, November 7, 2026 at 9:00 p.m.
“Since its beginning, The Bluebird Cafe has been all about the songs, and I look forward to bringing mine to THE premier listening room in Nashville,” said Dallas Wayne. “Listening rooms are my favorite places to play because they foster an intimate, one-to-one connection with the audience – much like the relationship with our radio listeners on SiriusXM Willie’s Roadhouse and Outlaw Country.”
“After a year and a half focused on battling cancer, it’s a real pleasure to be able to hit the road again now that I’m in remission,” added Wayne.
