Braxton Keith’s New Song “I Ain’t Tryin’” + A Huge 2026 Tour Ahead

Braxton Keith is back with a brand-new song, and fans are already loving it. “I Ain’t Tryin’,” out now via Warner Records Nashville, is one of those tracks that feels familiar the very first time you hear it in the best way possible.

Braxton describes it perfectly:
“It’s like a good pair of jeans that come back in style. It’s just good old country music.”

And that’s exactly what the song sounds like. It’s warm, simple, smooth, and easy to vibe with. The melody rolls just right, the steel guitar hits that sweet spot, and Braxton’s deep vocals tie it all together.

But the excitement doesn’t stop with the single. Braxton is also gearing up for one of his biggest touring years yet.With his trademark Texas charm, powerhouse vocals, and songs built for two-steppin’, Braxton is quickly becoming a must-see act.

The first wave of 2026 tour dates is here, and they’re stacked. He’s hitting clubs, festivals, rodeos, and major stages across the country and for the first time ever, he’s heading all the way to Australia to support Riley Green. Plus, he’s locked in for massive festivals like Stagecoach, CMC Rocks, Railbird, Country Thunder, Tailgate N’ Tallboys, Windy City Smokeout, and more.

It’s shaping up to be a huge year for one of country music’s fastest-rising names and “I Ain’t Tryin’” is the perfect way to kick it all off.
