Rochester is already worth the trip on its own. When Ashley McBryde rolls into Kodak Center on Friday, October 9, 2026 with her Into the Wild Tour, you have a very good reason to point the car west. Showtime is 8:00 PM.
About Ashley McBryde
If you have been paying attention to country music’s rougher, more honest edges, you already know why this one matters. The Arkansas-bred songwriter has never been interested in playing it safe — her catalogue runs from Girl Going Nowhere (2018) through Never Will (2020), Lindeville (2022), and The Devil I Know (2023), and each record arrived better than the last. Never Will earned simultaneous Country Album of the Year nominations from the ACM, the CMA, and the Recording Academy — a rare triple-nomination that put her in a category by herself.
Her fifth studio album, Wild, dropped May 8, 2026. Recorded with her live band Deadhorse and produced by John Osborne of Brothers Osborne, the 11-track record is her most personal yet — chronicling her path to sobriety after a stretch that included a serious accident in 2021. The result blends the country-rock she has always favored with something more stripped down and honest. As her producer put it: “There are people out there with natural ability and there are people that dedicate every waking hour to honing their craft. Ashley is both.”
The Grammy, ACM, and CMA award-winning Grand Ole Opry member has called Wild her most rock ’n’ roll record, sonically and emotionally. No opening act has been announced for the Rochester date — she is headlining alone, and she does not need the help.
Venue Info
Kodak Center is a 2,400-capacity theater at 200 W Ridge Rd in Rochester, squarely in the Rochester / Finger Lakes corridor. For a headliner of McBryde’s caliber, it is the right size room — close enough that you can feel the show, big enough that tickets are actually available if you move on them. If you are driving in from Syracuse or points east, give yourself extra time before the 8:00 PM start.
