Posted By on February 24, 2025

Whiskey Myers are coming to Roanoke Island Festival Park this July when their What We Were Born To Do Tour arrives on the Outer Banks as part of the summer concert series presented by Live From OBX. Read on for more from today’s press release.

Multi-platinum, genre-bending band Whiskey Myers have played more than 2,500 live shows to ever-increasing crowd sizes since their emergence in 2007. In addition to headlining their own sold-out shows from coast to coast at iconic venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheater and Ryman Auditorium, plus performing at marquee festivals like Bonnaroo, Stagecoach, Download and more, the six-piece was also personally selected to open The Rolling Stones’ Chicago stadium show in 2019.

Their latest self-produced album, Tornillo, available everywhere now via the band’s own Wiggy Thump Records, features the No. 17 most-played Americana song of 2022, “John Wayne,” and follows their fifth studio album, Whiskey Myers, which debuted at No. 1 on both the Country and Americana/Folk sales charts, at No. 2 on the Rock chart and No. 6 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart (No. 3 among new releases). In total, Whiskey Myers have sold more than 2.3 million albums and amassed over 3.3 billion streams while earning nine RIAA Gold, Platinum and multi-Platinum certifications as an
independent band.

Known for their high-energy live show and unique sound, the band praised by Esquire as “the real damn deal” has also earned success with features (and an on-screen appearance) in Paramount’s hit show Yellowstone, as well as the Netflix series What/If, the Angelina Jolie film Those Who Wish Me Dead, and the CBS series SEAL Team, among several others.

USA Today describes their sound as “a riff-heavy blend of Southern rock and gritty country that has earned comparisons to the Allman Brothers Band and Led Zeppelin,” with Rolling Stone noting “it’s the seminal combination of twang and crunchy rock & roll guitars that hits a perfect sweet spot.”

This summer’s Outer Banks show is presented by Live From OBX, as a part of the Live From OBX concert series.

Whiskey Myers, with special guest Josh Meloy, will be live in concert on Tuesday, July 22, hitting the stage at 6:30 p.m. at Roanoke Island Festival Park in Manteo.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday, February 28 at LiveFromOBX.com.

Stay tuned and keep watching this space for more 2025 concert announcements coming soon.
