The What We Were Born to Do Tour will run through the Northeast
With their full-tilt What We Were Born To Do Tour rocking venues coast to coast this summer ahead of the September 26th release of their highly anticipated album Whomp Whack Thunder, genre-defying band Whiskey Myers brings a special, stripped-back version of their multi-Platinum catalog to fans with the Whiskey Myers & Friends acoustic run of shows visiting classic theaters throughout the Northeast this December.
Tickets for the seven dates featuring special guests Bones Owens and Rob Leines go on sale this Friday, August 1st, at 10 am local time. Tickets to remaining What We Were Born To Do Tour headlining shows and co-headlining dates of the upcoming Live in 25 Tour with Tedeschi Trucks Band are on sale now.
The acoustic run will feature unique versions of songs from across the band’s discography, including the soon-to-be-released Whomp Whack Thunder. Born from the piney woods of East Texas and shaped in the soul of Nashville during an immersive three weeks with renowned producer Jay Joyce – known for bringing edge, atmosphere, and unpredictability to every project (Eric Church, Cage the Elephant, Halestorm, Lainey Wilson) – Whomp Whack Thunder is a strong statement from the independent band.
Frontman Cody Cannon penned all eleven tracks solo, delivering stories that hit with the emotional weight of lived experience and the firepower of the band’s signature sound to craft a record born of the road and shaped by nearly two decades of defiant, grassroots momentum. The forthcoming album features the full force of the six-piece with Joyce also contributing keys, organ, and guitar, crafting a sonic landscape that stretches from greasy blues-rock riffs to gospel-tinged country soul.
