Charley Crockett announces New York City residency

The three-night run takes place at Cafe Carlyle in October

Making a grand return to the Big Apple in style, Grammy Award-nominated, critically acclaimed country iconoclast Charley Crockett will headline his first-ever New York City residency when he takes over Cafe Carlyle in Manhattan for a three-night stand from October 15-17.

It marks a full circle moment for the beloved country maverick as he famously busked on the streets and in the subways of New York at the onset of his music career nearly two decades ago. As such, expect an intimate, albeit powerful performance each evening as he serves up fan favorites, covers, and all kinds of surprises. It promises to be the ultimate Charley Crockett experience through and through.

Last week, he unveiled his second album of 2025, Dollar A Day, out now via Island Records.

On Dollar A Day, Crockett once again joined forces with creative kindred spirit and Grammy Award-winning co-producer Shooter Jennings. The new LP also marks the second installment in The Sagebrush Trilogy, coming just five months after Lonesome Drifter—part one of the trilogy.

Among many standouts, it features the knockout new single “Tennessee Quick Cash.” Across the track, Crockett paints a vivid picture of late nights, shady deals, and unforgettable characters in Music City.

As a whole, the 15-track body of work sees Crockett leaning into classic country storytelling set to a soundtrack of his one-of-a-kind “Gulf & Western” style. Throughout the LP, he recalls the past, wonders about the future, and capitalizes on the present with arresting songcraft, jaw-dropping guitar playing, and his immediately recognizable world-weary, yet warm vocals.

A truly singular artist who refracts various strains of American music through his incomparable prism, Dollar A Day may very well be the apex of his signature “Gulf & Western” sound to date. Like its predecessor, Lonesome Drifter, Dollar A Day was recorded at the fabled Sunset Sound Studio 3 in Hollywood, with Crockett and Jennings once again helming the proceedings.

Through and through, The Sagebush Trilogy is a timeless Western saga with a distinctly modern spin, as Crockett guides listeners on an epic journey without comparison.
