Ahead of this weekend's CMT Music Awards, Billboard focuses on five country artists to watch. This episode features The Red Clay Strays.
Tetris Kelly:
Country meets rock, creating the perfect blend of genres. Red Clay Strays started making music in 2016 and the Alabama natives have been climbing the charts ever since and never looked back. After releasing their debut album 'Moment of Truth' in 2022, their hit single 'Wondering Why' slowly reached No. 18 on the Hot Country Songs chart and No. 7 on the Hot Rock Songs chart.
The group combines rockabilly, gospel, soul, blues, rock and country to create what they call non-denominational rock and roll.
Dierks Bentley:
I'm just obsessed with this band. I really like this band.
Tetris Kelly:
Plus, they got Dierks Bentley's stamp of approval.
The band recently signed to RCA and announced their first ever European tour, so you should be seeing these guys in your area soon.
