IRVING PLAZA, NASHVILLE’S RYMAN AUDITORIUM AND MORE
Flatland Cavalry’s anticipated new album, Wandering Star, is out today via Interscope Records—their first release in partnership with the label. Stream/purchase HERE.
Produced by Dwight A. Baker (Josh Abbott Band, Pat Green), Wandering Star is a collection of country anthems and thoughtful ballads that further elevate the band’s signature musicianship and vivid storytelling. Across these thirteen tracks, Flatland Cavalry reflect on authentic day-to-day experiences, while celebrating the simple joys of life.
Critical acclaim for Wandering Star:
“Their harmonies purvey a particularly conversational appeal”—Billboard
“They just don’t make them like Flatland Cavalry anymore…a collection of songs that feel timeless right out of the gate, warm and twangy with full-bodied arrangements”—No Depression
“groovy country-rock instrumentation”—American Songwriter
“One of the best bands in the business…a sound that is indisputably unique and distinctly their own”
—Whiskey Riff
“one of the brightest Texas country-folk bands…they worked their usual musical magic” —Holler
“They’ve also got a killer lyric to work with. Like, Isbell-level killer”—Country Universe
“one of the hottest independent groups in the entire genre”—Country Chord
Known for their electric live shows, Flatland Cavalry will continue to tour through next year including headline shows at Fort Worth’s Billy Bob’s (two nights), Athens’ Georgia Theatre (two nights), Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium and New York’s Irving Plaza among others. See below for complete tour itinerary.
Reflecting on the new album, Cordero shares, “Historically, all our albums have been named after a lyric that seems to most encapsulate the spirit and ethos of the project. Late one evening from my office in Nashville came the inspiration to name this record. My wife, who is from Oklahoma, acquired a piece of embroidered folk art which hangs on the wall of my office of a native man posed with Eagle wings. The art piece is untitled, but I imagined the subject being named ‘Dancing Eagle.’ Then I imagined ‘what would be my name if it were given to me in the same spirit?’… and the two words ‘Wandering Star’ floated to the surface; which happens to be a lyric in ‘Spinnin’.’ Naming our fourth LP Wandering Star felt right as we have been wandering around all of creation the last ten years, truth-seeking and dream-chasing; aiming for the moon and at last it seems we’ve found ourselves finally floating amongst the stars.”
Based in both Texas and Nashville, Flatland Cavalry is Cordero (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jason Albers (drums, percussion), Jonathan Saenz (bass, background vocals), Reid Dillon (electric guitar), Wesley Hall (fiddle) and Adam Gallegos (piano, organ, keys, mandolin, banjo, acoustic guitar, Wurlitzer, Mellotron).
Since their 2015 debut, Flatland Cavalry has released two EPs and three full-length studio albums, including 2021’s Welcome to Countryland. Of the record, The Wall Street Journal praised, “a clear musical point of view, original melodies, mature confidence in portraying romantic matters, and increasingly fresh, distinctive lyrics…a straightforward, upbeat electrified country-rock band,” while Rolling Stone declared, “Flatland Cavalry are promising to make days a little brighter wherever they go.” With the release, the band earned two #1 singles at Texas Country Radio (“Gettin’ By” and “A Cowboy Knows How”) and garnered over 290 million streams to date across platforms. Additionally, their track, “Mountain Song,” was also recently featured in the hit television series, “Yellowstone.” Known for their electric live performances, the band has toured relentlessly these past several years including numerous sold-out headline dates as well as shows with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, Midland and more.
