Detroit’s country music fans are gearing up for a highly anticipated annual tradition as 99.5 WYCD’s Ten Man Jam returns on February 12, 2026. Known for its intimate setting and star-powered lineup, the beloved showcase once again brings together a mix of rising artists and established hitmakers, which is headlined this year by multi-platinum entertainer Jon Pardi.
Hosted at The Fillmore Detroit, the Ten Man Jam has built a reputation for delivering a unique concert experience where artists share the stage throughout the night, swapping stories, trading verses, and creating one-of-a-kind moments that can’t be replicated on a typical tour stop. The 2026 edition continues that tradition with a lineup that blends fresh voices with seasoned talent.
Leading the bill, Jon Pardi brings his signature sound and high-energy presence to the Detroit stage. With chart-toppers like “Heartache Medication,” “Dirt on My Boots,” and “Last Night Lonely,” Pardi’s headlining set is expected to anchor the night with the kind of electrifying performance that has made him one of country music’s most consistent live draws.
Joining him are several standout artists making waves across the genre. Max McNown, Jackson Dean, Ashley Cooke and John Morgan along with several others will perform as well, poised to bring the roof down in Detroit. For many Detroit-area country fans, the Ten Man Jam isn’t just another concert, it’s a hallmark event that often showcases future stars before they break wide into the mainstream.
Tickets traditionally move quickly due to the show’s intimate nature and the reputation it’s built over the years. With Jon Pardi at the helm and a slate of rising talent rounding out the lineup, the 2026 Ten Man Jam is shaping up to be one of WYCD’s most memorable yet.
You are able to purchase tickets as they go on sale for the general public on Friday, December 5 at 10:00 AM EST.
