Named Apple Music’s Country Riser of the Month for January, Myers captivated last night’s jam-packed room with a scorching setlist of standouts from The Select. Thanks to an invite shared across his socials, the free event pulled in a massive crowd, with a line of fans wrapped around the building and the venue quickly reaching capacity ahead of a moderated Q&A about the making of The Select— hosted by Country Radio Hall of Famer & Texas Radio Hall of Famer Bob Pickett and including album producer Brandon Hood.
Over the course of the following set, Myers riled up the audience with mind-blowing renditions of previously released highlights from The Select, including his Billboard Hot 100 chart debut “Ends of the Earth” (featuring Hood hopping on electric guitar), as well as “Drunk Love,” “Can’t Hold Me Down,” “Worry is a Sickness,” and “Drinkin’ Alone,” plus his soul-stirring debut single, “Tie That Binds.” In a testament to his undeniable power as a singer, guitarist, and all-around performer, each song drew a deafening reaction as crowd members screamed along to nearly every word. As an added treat for his most devoted fans, he also performed as-yet-unreleased album cuts like “Firefly” (a moody slow-burner he recently teased on Instagram here). An exceptionally gifted songwriter, Myers amassed a staggering 14 writing credits on The Select, including 12 songs written entirely on his own.
ailed as an “Artist to Watch” by Pandora, GRAMMY.com, Holler, Country Now, All Country News, and more, Myers is now set to take the country by storm on The Select Tour — his second headline run so far, serving as the follow-up to his SOLD-OUT Let ‘Em Talk Tour. With his live experience also sharing the stage with the legendary Willie Nelson and supporting Wade Bowen, Randy Rogers Band, and Cody Johnson, The Select Tour’s newly expanded itinerary will bring Myers’ must-see live show to famed venues all over the West Coast like The Showbox in Seattle, WA, and Crystal Ballroom in Portland, OR.
