OLE 60: SMOKESTACK TOWN TOUR

Made in Hancock County, Kentucky, Ole 60 is not your father’s country band. Caught in the crosshairs of indie rock sonics, folk songwriting, and country sensibilities, the six-piece from Hawesville shot to notoriety in 2024 with “smoke & a light,” topping Spotify’s U.S. Viral Top 50 chart with the on-fire single and the Apple Music Country Albums chart with their debut EP, three twenty four, surpassing genre titans Zach Bryan and Morgan Wallen in the process. Last September, they did it again with sophomore EP Songs About You and breakout hit, “Thoughts of You,” topping TikTok’s all-genre Viral 50 Music chart.

Heavily influenced by Smashing Pumpkins, Metallica, Radiohead, John Prine, and Nicholas Jamerson, with nearly 700 million global career streams, the band delivers with “solid musicianship, a willingness to experiment with sounds from psychedelic-tinged rock to more stripped-down fare, and a penchant for detailed storytelling” (Billboard). Headlining nationwide now, the boys from Kentucky just released their debut album, Smokestack Town, and surprise follow-up single, “Can’t Take It With You.”
