Just Waylon – A Tribute to the Original Outlaw

Kansas City’s own Just Waylon is a heartfelt tribute to the one and only Waylon Jennings—the godfather of outlaw country. Fronted by Jim Eaton of Outlaw Jim and the Whiskey Benders fame, the band brings Jennings' gritty, defiant spirit to life with every performance.

Backed by a crew of top-tier KC musicians, Just Waylon digs deep into the legendary outlaw’s catalog, from the raw edge of “Lonesome, On'ry and Mean” to the laid-back swagger of “Luckenbach, Texas.” Whether it's the hard-hitting drive of "Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way" or the haunting beauty of "Dreaming My Dreams with You," Eaton and company deliver each song with reverence, soul, and just the right amount of grit.

More than just a tribute, Just Waylon is a celebration of a true American original. With Eaton’s commanding presence and lived-in vocals leading the charge, audiences are treated to a show that feels like a front-row seat at a vintage Waylon concert—raw, real, and loud enough to shake the rafters.

For fans of real-deal country music, Just Waylon is a must-see. Saddle up and catch them around Kansas City and beyond—because Waylon never really left, and this band proves it.
