2025 Sold Out Quickly, Fans are Advised to Reserve Spots Now
NASHVILLE, TN (November 4, 2025)…Americana and Blues artist David Starr is inviting music lovers on an unforgettable journey through Scotland next spring, combining live performances, cultural immersion, and breathtaking sights. The Music Tour with David Starr, co-hosted by Raven Sinclaire and operated by Traceless Tours, is an 11-day experience rooted in discovery, music, and meaningful connection. Starr hosted the same tour in May of this year, which completely sold out.
The tour blends daytime explorations of castles, lochs, museums, and coastal towns with intimate evening concerts — including four private performances by Starr himself featuring songs from his critically acclaimed Blues/Americana record, Must Be Blue, (Quarto Valley Records) — and time with local musicians and storytellers. Travelers will stay in 4-star eco-conscious hotels, enjoy breakfast daily, three group dinners, and experience the Scottish Highlands, Borders, East Coast, and more, all by luxury coach.
“Scotland is one of my favorite places on earth and I am so excited to be able to combine my two loves of music and travel with a small group of fellow adventurers. This tour is about connection — to music, to history, to the land, and to each other,” says Starr.
The sample itinerary includes visits to Abbotsford House, Melrose Abbey, Stirling Castle, the Cairngorm Mountains, stops in charming towns like Peebles, North Berwick, Dunkeld, and Nairn, a reindeer walk, coastal hikes, gin tastings, and historical insights into the Border Ballads, and regenerative travel practices that support local communities and conservation efforts.
The tour is limited in size to allow for spontaneous adventures and deeper engagement. It’s priced at $4,100 per person (or $3,900 if paid in full), with a $1,200 deposit securing your spot. Airfare and airport transfers are not included. For more details or to reserve a place, visit www.tracelesstours.com or email Raven at info@tracelesstours.com.
About David Starr
David Starr is a Colorado-based Blues and Americana singer/songwriter with over 12 albums to his credit. The Arkansas native has honed his decades-long career touring internationally, sharing the stage and collaborating with esteemed artists such as John Oates (Hall & Oates), John McEuen, Steve Cropper, Jim Lauderdale, and Wild Ponies as well as opening for acts like America, Karla Bonoff, Jim Messina, Survivor, and more. He has been a showcasing artist at Folk Alliance International, AMERICANAFEST, and Southwest Regional Folk Alliance. In 2024 he melded his Blues background of growing up playing electric guitar and drums in Southern Arkansas clubs with his time spent in Nashville exploring Americana and Folk. After receiving rave reviews and recognition for his Blues-leaning singles from editorial playlists on Spotify such as “Got Blues”, it was clear he was striking a nerve. GRAMMY®-winning label Quarto Valley Records agreed and signed Starr to a record deal for a full-length project. What he arrived at was his own brand of “Bluesicana” - a melding of Americana and Blues for his critically acclaimed project "Must Be Blue", out April 25, 2025. He was inducted into the inaugural class of the Northwest Arkansas Musicians Hall of Fame and is a member of the Blues Foundation, The Colorado Blues Society, and the Pikes Peak Blues Society. Starr’s prestige extends beyond the stage, having launched Starr’s Guitars in Little Rock, before relocating to Cedaredge, CO in 2001, where it is now a beloved institution. Starr is also a founding member of the board for the Grand Mesa Arts & Events Center in Cedaredge, an intimate event space aimed at attracting musicians and visual artists to Colorado’s Western Slope. In 2024, he produced the sold-out inaugural Grand Mesa Songwriter Festival, which brought 15 songwriters to Cedaredge to perform over 50 shows across five venues, which just celebrated its second year.
