Darius Rucker — From Hootie to Country Icon
Darius Rucker’s career spans two genuinely distinct chapters — both extraordinary. As the frontman of Hootie & the Blowfish, he sold over 25 million albums worldwide and produced one of the best-selling debut albums in music history with Cracked Rear View. As a solo country artist, his first two country albums Learn To Live and Charleston, SC 1966 produced five No. 1 singles including “Come Back Song,” “This,” “Alright,” “It Won’t Be Like This For Long” and “Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It.”
In 2014, Rucker won his third career GRAMMY award for Best Solo Country Performance for his triple platinum selling cover of Old Crow Medicine Show’s “Wagon Wheel,” off his album True Believers. That GRAMMY-winning cover makes the July 25 Red Rocks pairing — Darius Rucker headlining with Old Crow Medicine Show as support — one of the most poetically fitting bills of the entire summer. The man who covered “Wagon Wheel” performing with the band who wrote it, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. For the full 2026 Red Rocks season, see our latest concerts planned at Red Rocks 2026 schedule.
Songs of Summer Tour — Built for Exactly This Kind of Night
Rucker said in an Instagram post: “When I think of the concerts I love attending, it’s the people, the hits and the hot summer air… The Songs of Summer Tour in a lot of ways is my nod to being in that moment together!” A warm July Saturday at Red Rocks — the natural canyon formations glowing in the evening light, 9,500 fans singing along to “Wagon Wheel” and “Hootie’s” biggest hits — is exactly the kind of night the Songs of Summer Tour was built around.
The tour is promoted by Live Nation and features a rotating lineup of special guests including Lauren Alaina, George Birge, Old Crow Medicine Show, Robert Randolph, Evan Honer, and Austin Williams. Old Crow Medicine Show, the Grammy-winning string band that originally wrote “Wagon Wheel,” is confirmed as a special guest on three Songs of Summer Tour dates, with the Red Rocks show being one of them. Pre-book your denver to red rocks car service from Red Rocks Voyager and be there for the singalong moment of the summer.
Old Crow Medicine Show & Austin Williams — A Perfect Supporting Bill
Old Crow Medicine Show — the Grammy-winning Nashville string band who wrote “Wagon Wheel” as a fragment of an unfinished Bob Dylan song and turned it into a bluegrass-folk phenomenon — bring their own headline-caliber roots music energy to the July 25 bill. The pairing creates a strong possibility for a collaborative version of the song that fans have been dreaming about for years. Austin Williams opens the evening. Doors open at 7:00 PM — arrive ready for all three acts. Your car service denver to red rocks from Red Rocks Voyager guarantees that.
Saturday Night at Red Rocks in Late July — Why Your Ride Matters

Parking fills hours before showtime. The mountain roads to Morrison back up significantly on peak Saturday evenings. Our Red Rocks traffic and car service from Denver guide covers Saturday summer show traffic in detail. Our Red Rocks Amphitheatre parking guide explains the lot situation for a Darius Rucker Saturday night. Pre-book your red rocks car service and skip every bit of it.
