Lyle Lovett and his Small Large Band with special guests The Hello Darlins will perform at the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton on Saturday, September 12, 2026.
 
Four-time Grammy Award–winning singer, composer, and actor Lyle Lovett has announced new Canadian dates for his expansive 2026 North American tour, this time performing with his Small Large Band.
 
The Canadian tour kicks off in Calgary on September 9th and will make stops all across the country in theatres and arenas with “Canadiana” supergroup, The Hello Darlins, joining as Special Guest.
 
Whether touring solo or with his Acoustic Group or his Small Large Band, Lovett’s live performances show not only the breadth of this Texas legend’s deep talents, but also the diversity of his influences, making him one of the most compelling and captivating musicians in popular music.
 
A singer, composer and actor, Lyle Lovett has broadened the definition of American music in a career that spans 14 albums. Coupled with his gift for storytelling, the Texas-based musician fuses elements of country, swing, jazz, folk, gospel and blues in a convention-defying manner that breaks down barriers. Since his self-titled debut in 1986, Lyle Lovett has evolved into one of music’s most vibrant and iconic performers. Among his many accolades, besides the four Grammy Awards, Lovett was given the Americana Music Association’s inaugural Trailblazer Award and was named Texas State Musician. Earlier this year, he was honored with the International Trailblazer Award at the UK Americana Music Awards. His works, rich and eclectic, are some of the most beloved of any artist working today.
 
About The Hello Darlins:

Let the beautiful harmonies and impressive musicianship of The Hello Darlins wash over you for an evening of storytelling, laughter, and reflection.
