An extended version of Flatland Cavalry’s 10-year anniversary album, Flatland Forever, is out today via Interscope Records. Stream or purchase it HERE. Flatland Forever (More) features all 25 tracks from Flatland Forever along with additional band commentary, alternate versions of fan favorites such as “A Life Where We Work Out” and “One I Want,” and “Mis Últimas Palabras”—their first song performed in both Spanish and English.

A compilation of some of their most beloved songs from the past decade, Flatland Forever was released last month to critical acclaim. Billboard praised it as “a stellar catalog of songs…top-notch new material,” while Holler declared, “It’s a brilliant collection, a stunning mix of the old and the new.” Additionally, All Country News proclaimed, “The Texas powerhouses are proving why they’re the heart and soul of today’s country music…a perfect reflection of their musical ethos: honest, heartfelt storytelling paired with captivating melodies.”

In further celebration of their breakout year, the band will release the full-length performance video of their Ryman Auditorium headline debut this Monday, December 23, at 8:00 PM CT on YouTube. Described as “a truly amazing show” (Holler), the milestone concert featured special guests Kaitlin Butts and Colby Acuff and marked the band’s first-ever RIAA certification, with “A Life Where We Work Out” achieving Gold status.

Known for their electrifying live shows, the band will also perform their first-ever headline arena show at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena on December 31 and kick off their “Flatland Forever Tour” next year. Newly confirmed stops include Atlanta’s Coca-Cola Roxy, Birmingham’s Alabama Theatre, Omaha’s Steelhouse Omaha, Ann Arbor’s Michigan Theater, Madison’s The Sylvee, Memphis’ Minglewood Hall, Charlottesville’s Ting Pavilion, and Portland’s Crystal Ballroom, among others. See below for the complete tour itinerary.

Since their first show as a group in Lubbock, TX, in 2014, Flatland Cavalry has garnered widespread attention from fans, fellow artists, and critics alike. Rolling Stone declared, “Flatland Cavalry are at the fore of the Red Dirt Renaissance…one of the most dynamic presences in country music,” while The Wall Street Journal praised them as “a straightforward, upbeat electrified country-rock band,” and American Songwriter called them “a dynamic representation of country music…Kris Kristofferson and John Prine’s enduring influence of folk storytelling traces through.”

The band also recently wrote and recorded songs for two major film soundtracks (Twisters and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes), received their first ACM Awards nomination (Group of the Year), and had their music featured on Paramount’s Yellowstone and Landman as well as Netflix’s The Ranch. Additionally, they’ve amassed more than 500 million streams across platforms, earned six #1 singles at Texas Country Radio, and toured relentlessly, including countless sold-out headline dates and shows with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, Midland, and more. Most recently, Flatland Cavalry reached #1 on Shazam’s U.S. Top 200 chart after their song “How Long” was featured in Yellowstone. Receiving over 81,000 Shazams, the song surpassed tracks by Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars, The Weeknd & Playboi Carti, and others.

Based in both Texas and Nashville, Flatland Cavalry comprises Cleto 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).
