Genre-bending band, Whiskey Myers, who have built a loyal following through their hard-rocking live shows, will play a headline gig in Whelan's in Dublin on 26 May 2019 as part of their 2019 Die Rockin’ tour.
Launching January 25 in Nashville, Tenn., the Die Rockin’ Tour follows a string of sell outs for the band Esquire magazine calls “the real damn deal” and Playboy praises as “the new bad boys of country music”.
In the last 15 months alone, Whiskey Myers have sold out more than 115 headlining shows, with several more sellouts on the way through the end of 2018.
“It’s been wild to go into all these new cities we’ve never played before and see those crowds still show up singing every word back to us,” shares lead singer Cody Cannon. “We always say that we’re just a bunch of rednecks trying to play rock and roll, so the fact that we now get to go into new countries blows my mind.”
The tour, which includes 38 US dates as well as 15 European stops, will bring what USA Today describes as “a riff-heavy blend of Southern rock and gritty country” and Rolling Stone commends for its “seminal combination of twang and crunchy rock & roll guitars that hits a perfect sweet spot” to a whole new legion of fans.

Whiskey Myers have played nearly 2,000 live shows since their emergence in 2008 and have sold out more than 115 headlining shows in the last 15 months alone.
As Esquire proclaims, "Whiskey Myers are the real damn deal." USA Today describes the band led by frontman Cody Cannon as "a riff-heavy blend of Southern rock and gritty country that has earned comparisons to the Allman Brothers Band and Led Zeppelin."
With Rolling Stone noting: "It's the seminal combination of twang and crunchy rock & roll guitars that hits a perfect sweet spot."
Their most recent album, Mud, reached No. 1 on the iTunes country chart with single "Stone" hitting Top 10 all genre, and they are currently in the studio working on their self-produced fifth studio album expected in early 2019.
Whiskey Myers was featured in Paramount Network's new Kevin Costner hit show "Yellowstone" with synced songs throughout the season as well as an appearance by the band in episode four as part of the storyline.
