The Christian Name Tour: Charles Wesley Godwin in 2026

Charles Wesley Godwin grew up in Morgantown, West Virginia, played college soccer, and only turned to music full time in his mid-twenties. The late start has shaped the sound of his songwriting -- songs that lean heavily on family, place, work, and the slow unfolding of life rather than the radio-ready hooks that dominate so much of mainstream country. The Christian Name Tour is the latest chapter in that journey, named for his 2025 fourth studio album.

Godwin first broke through with his 2019 debut Seneca, then expanded his reach with 2021s How the Mighty Fall and the breakthrough 2023 album Family Ties. The 2025 Christian Name record has cemented him as one of the most respected songwriters in the new wave of independent country and Americana, and the 2026 tour is built around the new material with the older catalog folded in throughout the set.

The 2026 schedule started in Canada in June and runs through the United States from July through late November. Notable dates include shows at the UP District at Festival Field in Fargo, the District in Sioux Falls, the Old Saloon in Emigrant, MT (a venue with a long history of intimate Americana shows), the Majestic Valley Arena in Kalispell, and the hometown-region show at the Charleston Coliseum in West Virginia on November 6, 2026. The tour wraps in St. Petersburg, FL on November 20.

Live, Godwin band leans into traditional country instrumentation -- fiddle, lap steel, acoustic and electric guitar, upright bass on certain songs -- without ever feeling like a museum piece. The arrangements feel current and emotional, with extended outros and crowd singalongs on the most beloved tracks. Family Ties, Seneca, How Old Do You Think I Am?, Two Weeks Gone, and the title track from The Christian Name are setlist staples.

Special guest Coleman Jennings is opening on select dates of the tour. Jennings is one of the new wave of West Virginia-adjacent country songwriters Godwin has championed, and his sets have been a highlight of the tour for fans showing up early.
