Country singer Randall King is pausing his tour to prioritize his mental health.
“It’s easy to get lost in this world,” King, 35, wrote in a statement shared via Instagram on Wednesday, March 18. “Sometimes you have no idea how deep into it you are until you step back and look. Over the past couple weeks I’ve dug deep and taken a hard look at areas of my life that need serious attention and change because not only have my choices effected [sic] myself, they have affected the people I love the most.”
He continued, “My faith comes first and right now I don’t feel right stepping on stage without the confidence that I’m living as the man God has called me to be. For that reason, I’m pausing touring for the time being. I’m actively seeking professional help and focusing on my faith, my health/mental health, and my family.”
King went on to say that he believes God gave him “the gift of music” to impact other people’s lives and guide him on “the path to healing.”

“But I have to let go, surrender, face the problems, and accept the help of people who understand better what I’m going through,” he reflected. “It’s so hard for me to cancel shows because touring has been my life for the last decade. But for the sake of my faith, my family, and my fans, I have to be authentic in this change in my life, and walk by Faith. Let me take this time, commit to getting well, and through this, return stronger, focused, and more grateful than ever.”
Included in the post was a list of late March and early April tour dates in Texas, Arizona and California, some of which were canceled or postponed. Per King’s official website, his next tour date is now scheduled for April 10 in Hempstead, Texas, at the Waller County Fairgrounds.
“Thank you to everyone who has supported me and prayed for me,” King concluded the post. “I’ve always looked at music as a way to heal but this is bigger than music. I appreciate any prayers you have. Through God’s grace and mercy I will rise from this and see y’all soon.”

King is a West Texas native who describes himself as an “old soul,” per his website. He takes inspiration from Keith Whitley, George Strait and Alan Jackson and “effortlessly blends honest, heartfelt songwriting with pure honky-tonk swagger, delivering electrifying live performances every time.”
“He consistently sells out venues across the U.S. and internationally in the U.K., Germany, the Netherlands and Scandinavia,” the website reads. “Averaging nearly 140 shows annually, he continues to grow a loyal fanbase worldwide.”
The “Mirror, Mirror” singer has over 500 million global streams with hits like “You in a Honky Tonk” and “Hey Cowgirl.” His 2024 album, Into the Neon, was praised by Saving Country Music for its “hot honky tonk sound everyone else is trying to emulate.”
“Instead of chasing the imitators and bandwagoners, Randall King and Into the Neon are already right here for you,” the review stated.
