Luke Bell’s Songs To Ring In Regional Tour

Country up-and-comer Luke Bell sings in an old-school, Hank Williams-style honky-tonk, and he is introducing himself to audiences throughout the Midwestern and Southern U.S. starting next month.

The tour kicks off in Louisville Nov. 26 at Zanzabar. From there he mostly sticks to the central states, with a three-show run through Texas, the only state with more than one performance. The last night to catch him is Dec. 15 in Nashville at Exit / In. He does live in Nashville, where reportedly plays at Santa’s Pub regularly, so you might see him there.

It is no secret that many longtime country fans are having trouble relating to the pop-influences which have found their way into the genre. For those listeners, Luke Bell will be a breath of fresh air.

Check out his video for the song “Sometimes” to get a sense of how he sounds:

Bell is a true-to-roots country boy from Wyoming, who grew up working on his grandparents’ ranch. “I built fences, worked horses, stacked hay, dug sewage lines and fixed water tanks,” he told Rolling Stone.

The singer/songwriter released his eponymous debut earlier this year and now has a full set of original material to share with audiences.
