Hippies And Cowboys are a powerhouse rock ’n soul band hailing from Nashville, TN, bringing back the grit, groove, and raw energy of classic Southern rock with a modern
twist.
Their electrifying blend of blues, soul, and rock ’n’ roll channels the timeless influences of legends like Sam & Dave, The Blues Brothers, Booker T. & The MG’s, Otis Redding, and Marvin Gaye, while embracing the stadium-sized swagger of Aerosmith,
Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Eagles, The Rolling Stones, and Tom Petty.

From their early recordings in the legendary studios — such as FAME in Muscle Shoals, East Avalon, and Noise Block—to their explosive live performances, Hippies And Cowboys have quickly become one of the most talked-about rising acts in the Southern
rock revival. Their debut album, Live at Fox and Locke (2023), captured the raw energy of their live show, earning critical acclaim and setting the stage for their breakout. The follow-up EP, Fork in the Road, solidified their reputation with a gritty, hard-hitting
collection of songs that showcase their deep Southern roots and undeniable musicianship. Hippies and Cowboys has also been the house band at Kid Rock's Honky Tonk on Broadway in downtown Nashville for numerous years which has allowed them an extensive repertoire of songs and abilities.
Hippies And Cowboys have taken their high-energy show across the country, playing at major festivals like Pilgrimage Festival and Bristol Rhythm & Roots Revival. They've shared the stage with rock and country royalty, opening for acts like Goo Goo Dolls,
Blackberry Smoke, Atlanta Rhythm Section, and even Bon Jovi at the grand opening of his Nashville bar. Their relentless touring schedule and electrifying performances have built them a loyal following, earning them a reputation as one of the most exciting live bands on the circuit. In 2025, they are slated to perform at Chinook Festival, Pilgimage Festival, Bristol Rhythm & Roots Revival, WEFest, and much more with plans to tour
Europe in October 2025.
Their rise hasn’t gone unnoticed—Hippies And Cowboys have been featured in Rolling Stone, People Magazine, and Paste Magazine, solidifying their place as a band to watch in the evolving Southern rock landscape. As they continue to carve their own path, Hippies And Cowboys are proving that the spirit of rock 'n' roll is alive and well, and they’re here to take it to the next level.
