ENTERTAINMENT

FLATLAND CAVALRY
For the past decade, Flatland Cavalry has built a reputation as “one of the most dynamic presences in country music” (Rolling Stone) with their signature “Easy on the ears, heavy on the heart” sound. In 2024, the sextet celebrated 10 years together with Flatland Forever, an acclaimed album that pays tribute to their journey, revisiting fan favorites while introducing new songs that showcase how far theyve come.
The past year has been full of milestones for the Nashville and Texas-based band. They earned their first ACM Award nomination for Group of the Year, achieved their first RIAA Gold certification for their breakout single “A Life Where We Work Out,” and made their mark in film and television with contributions to the Twisters and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes soundtracks, as well as featured placements on Yellowstone and Landman. Their relentless touring schedule reached new heights, including sold-out headline performances at Fort Worths Dickies Arena and the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
Flatland Cavalry has racked up seven No. 1 singles on Texas Country Radio and amassed more than 500 million streams. Along the way, theyve shared the stage with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis, Midland (Texas Techs 2024 Homecoming headliner) and more – proving that their brand of storytelling and musicianship resonates far beyond their roots.
Flatland Cavalry comprises former Red Raiders Cleto Cordero (vocals, acoustic guitar), Jason Albers (drums, percussion), Reid Dillon (electric guitar) and Adam Gallegos (piano, organ, keys, mandolin, banjo), as well as Jonathan Saenz (bass) and Wesley Hall (fiddle).
