Benjamin Tod is stepping into 2026 with a new chapter, a new band, and his most ambitious tour yet!
Fresh off a prolific run with both his solo work and the beloved Lost Dog Street Band, the Nashville singer-songwriter has officially announced Benjamin Tod & The Inline Six, a honky tonk–leaning new project that will take him across the United States from April through October 2026.
The timing couldn’t feel more poetic: the news arrives just as Tod and his wife—and Lost Dog fiddle player—Ashley Mae prepare to welcome their first child. A new family chapter. A new touring era. A new band. It's all happening at once for Benjamin Tod.
A Coast-to-Coast Run With First-Ever Double-Headers
The tour kicks off April 16th in Fayetteville, Arkansas, before rolling through nearly every major market in the country. From Texas honky tonks to West Coast theaters, mountain-town ballrooms, and Northeast icons, The Inline Six are gearing up for a coast-to-coast marathon.
Among the most notable milestones of the run? Three double-header stops, a first for Tod. They include:
Revolution Hall in Portland, OR — July 24 & 25
Higher Ground Ballroom in South Burlington, VT — October 8 & 9
The Orange Peel in Asheville, NC — October 23 & 24
The tour wraps October 25th in Knoxville, closing out a six-month live stretch that proves Tod is far from slowing down—fatherhood or not.

A Creative Hot Streak Continues
