Country superstars dominate the list of headliners for the 2023 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Fourteen of the 19 acts have Nashville or Texas country bonafides. They'll all grace the stage of NRG Stadium: a venue that's synonymous with attendance record-setter George Strait.

"We are thrilled to welcome back so many talented artists including some fan favorites such as Houston rap legend, Bun B who will be taking the stage alongside some additional iconic southern performers," shared Chris Boleman, Rodeo President and CEO, in a press release. "The level of talent we have in this lineup will get the fans excited, including Texas' own Parker McCollum, who is helping us kick off this 2023, star lineup on Opening Day."
Festivities begin with a Texas homecoming for Parker McCollum. Appearances by '90s country notables (Brooks & Dunn), early aughts superstars (Brad Paisley) and some of today's top talents (Ashley McBryde) will follow. Elsewhere on the schedule, there's gospel singer and Reba McEntire collaborator Lauren Daigle as well as Bun B, a country-rap innovator during his time with hip-hop duo UGK.
