June 25, 2021—Flatland Cavalry’s new song, “A Cowboy Knows How,” is debuting today. Listen/share HERE.
Of the song, lead singer Cleto Cordero shares, “We had the privilege of opening for the very talented songwriter and Country Music tour de force, Luke Combs, in December 2019. Through that fateful encounter we got introduced to a man named Kappy, who welcomed us shortly after to the incredibly talented family that is Make Wake Artists. Along the way, Luke, as a fan of our music and what we do, had a song that he just couldn’t see himself recording ‘because he’s not a cowboy from Texas.’ Well, we don’t consider ourselves cowboys either…but we as Texans who appreciate the archetypal cowboy loved the message and spirit of the song—getting through a disheartening situation with gusto, suave and by getting back on the proverbial horse…the only way ‘A Cowboy Knows How.’ We’re proud that it is our first outside cut as a band and we hope you love it as much as we do!”
Written by Luke CombsDan Isbell and Jonathan Singleton, the track is the latest unveiled from the band’s anticipated new album, Welcome to Countryland, which will be released next Friday, July 2 and is now available for pre-order. Produced by Jake Gear and recorded at Nashville’s Sound Emporium Studios, Welcome to Countryland finds the band’s traditional Texas roots infused with a fresh modern sound. With the record’s 14 new songs, Flatland Cavalry is ready to make their mark on the country music landscape, exploring some of life’s most universal themes with their own unique sense of storytelling and musicianship.
Ahead of the release, the band has shared four additional album tracks: “Life Without You” featuring Kaitlin Butts, “No Ace In The Hole,” “Gettin’ By” and “Some Things Never Change,” of which Rolling Stone praises, “dancehall crowd-pleaser…it’s full of big builds and stops, perfect for dancing the night away with that special someone or just a handsome stranger.” Additionally, Welcome to Countryland also features a special collaboration with Hailey Whitters (“Meantime”).
In celebration of the new music, the band will continue their extensive “Welcome To Countryland” headline tour this summer including upcoming stops at Nashville, TN’s Marathon Music Works, Austin, TX’s Nutty Brown Café & Amphitheatre, Alexandria, VA’s Birchmere, Denver, CO’s The Grizzly Rose, Mobile, AL’s Soul Kitchen, Tucson, AZ’s The Rock and Charlotte, NC’s Coyote Joe’s among several others. In addition to the headline run, Flatland Cavalry will also join Luke Combs and Parker McCollum for select dates this year.
