Josh Weathers Releases Music City Sessions EP Today Via Thirty Tigers
Cowboy country artist Josh Weathers, praised by Rolling Stone for his “twanging, two-stepping, fiddle-laden” sound, strips things down to the essentials on Music City Sessions, out today via Thirty Tigers. The six-song EP, his second acoustic collection following Niles City Sessions, puts his voice front and center, backed by lean, live-in-the-room instrumentation. Stream/download here.

“Music City Sessions was created with my dear friend Justin Weaver and myself in a tiny room at Curb Studios in Nashville,” Weathers said. “He and I wanted to make something that was lean on instrumentation and heavy on vocals. We wanted to make something that felt like the old school country records we love.”
Self-produced and recorded in the heart of Music Row, the EP is raw, soulful and authentic. Focus track ‘In Love With Love Again’ captures that approach, and first single ‘For The Rest Of Our Lives’ feat. Aniston Pate, released September 25, shows how well a song can soar when it’s stripped down to acoustic instrumentation and vocals.
“‘In Love With Love Again’ is simple,” Weathers states. “If it makes you want to grab your lady and dance around your kitchen then we accomplished what we set out to do. A good two stepper will do that.”
The release follows Weathers’ recent publishing deal with Nashville’s Sea Gayle Music and arrives in the middle of a busy stretch on the road. He is currently headlining theaters and honky-tonks across Texas before heading to the UK and Ireland with Drake Milligan. He’ll then join Flatland Cavalry at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena on New Year’s Eve, play The MusicFest at Steamboat in the Colorado mountains, and make his Two Step Inn debut in Georgetown, TX in April.

ABOUT JOSH WEATHERS:
Josh Weathers is a cowboy country artist with a soul-steeped, once-in-a-generation voice. He first made waves in Texas fronting a band that blended country, soul, funk, gospel and rock ‘n’ roll, and his sweaty, joyous live shows can take a crowd from a tear-soaked ballad to a full-blown dance party in a single set.
His rendition of ‘I Will Always Love You’ went viral. At the peak of his momentum, Weathers stepped away from touring to launch a mission with his wife to combat human trafficking and provide refuge for children in India and El Salvador, and he returned to the stage with the songs hitting harder, the message clearer and the purpose deeper.
Now signed to Nashville publishing house Sea Gayle Music, Weathers releases his six-song EP Music City Sessions via Thirty Tigers on October 30. This fall, he joins Drake Milligan for a run across the UK and Ireland, including London’s Eventim Apollo, before sharing the stage with Flatland Cavalry at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena on December 31. His 2027 plans include The MusicFest at Steamboat and his debut at Two Step Inn.
