Flatland Cavalry Alternative Country For the past decade, Flatland Cavalry has built a reputation as "one of the most dynamic presences in country music" (Rolling Stone) with their signature "Easy on the ears, heavy on the heart" sound. In 2024, the sextet celebrated 10 years together with Flatland Forever, an acclaimed album that pays tribute to their journey, revisiting fan favorites while introducing new songs that showcase how far they've come.
The past year has been full of milestones for the Nashville and Texas-based band. They earned their first ACM Award nomination for Group of the Year, achieved their first RIAA Gold certification for their breakout single "A Life Where We Work Out," and made their mark in film and television with contributions to the Twisters and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds &amp; Snakes soundtracks, as well as featured placements on Yellowstone and Landman. Their relentless touring schedule reached new heights, including sold-out headline performances at Fort Worth's Dickies Arena and the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Since first emerging in 2014, Flatland Cavalry has racked up seven #1 singles on Texas Country Radio and amassed more than 500 million streams. Along the way, they've shared the stage with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, Midland, and more -- proving that their brand of storytelling and musicianship resonates far beyond their roots.
Flatland Cavalry is Cleto Cordero (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jason Albers (drums, percussion), Jonathan Saenz (bass), Reid Dillon (electric guitar), Wesley Hall (fiddle), and Adam Gallegos (piano, organ, keys, mandolin, banjo).

Maddie Rose Country From the small town of Newark, Texas, Maddie Rose is a singer-songwriter whose heart beats of soulful storytelling melodies. With music as her first love, she embraced the world of rhythm and rhyme from a young age. At the ripe age of 12, she wrote whatever came to mind on her keyboard and left handed Taylor guitar. Unbound by genre, Maddie believes in the organic creation of music, letting each song breathe and take shape in its own unique way. Her sound is a tapestry woven from the threads of her influences – the heartfelt storytelling of The Lumineers, the raw authenticity of Tyler Childers, the poetic serenity of Gregory Alan Isakov, the homegrown resonance of Flatland Cavalry, and the unique brilliance of Sierra Ferrell. Stay tuned to the unfolding chapters of Maddie Rose’s musical journey.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/140857/t/tickets" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>
