Event Description

Reserved: $27 advance ($32 day of show)

The tapestry of Southern music in America is rich, vivid, and diverse, and Adam Hood is an  artist who embodies this substantial musical lineage each time he straps on his Telecaster or  picks up his pen. Rooted in his Opelika, Alabama upbringing, Hood’s musicality and soul stirring lyrics are guided by the wisdom earned from thousands of miles spent on the road  chasing musical adventures from coast to coast. 

Adam Hood’s deep yearning to share his take on country music has led him to craft a sound  uniquely his own, what he calls “Southern songs.” It’s a soulful and profound version of the  genre that blends elements of assorted styles, reflecting the authenticity of Southern culture and  the way he grew up. “It’s Southern music,” Hood relates. “The soulful side of Southern music,  the country side of Southern music, the genuineness of Southern culture, it’s what I’ve always  done.” 

Though Hood initially made waves as a performer, it’s his songwriting that has truly set him  apart over the past decade. An impressive roster of artists, including Miranda Lambert, Little Big  Town, Whiskey Myers, Cody Jinks, Travis Tritt, and Riley Green, have recorded Hood’s songs,  adding a new layer to his formidable career. Yet, his own recorded and touring output remains a  vital part of the broader country music landscape. 

Hood’s 2022 album Bad Days Better was recorded at the famed Capricorn Studios in Macon,  Georgia, with Brent Cobb at the helm. The historic studio’s halls, once inhabited by legends like  Otis Redding, The Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, and Charlie Daniels, helped Cobb  and Hood guide this project. Released independently by Hood, Bad Days Better weaves his  present day among the echoes of his heroes and biggest influences, creating a sound, style, and  moment that is all his own. 

The album features an exceptional cast of collaborators, including Brit Turner, Richard Turner,  and Charlie Starr of Blackberry Smoke, with background vocals singularly provided by Miranda  Lambert. This deeply personal collection of songs reflects Hood’s journey through life’s hills  and valleys, with lyrics that are raw, honest, and vulnerable. “I speak more than I want to  sometimes,” he admits. “It makes me nervous to play it because I know it’s a vulnerable  moment.” But it’s this vulnerability that adds another layer to the Southern musical story Hood  continues to write. 

Following the Bad Days Better album, Hood released his most recent album, Different Groove, produced by Gordy Quist at The Finishing School in Austin, Texas. This album further solidified  his reputation as a versatile artist who can seamlessly blend various Southern sounds into a  cohesive and compelling narrative. 

In 2024, Hood teamed up with Brent Cobb yet again to release four digital singles: “Beat That  Train,” “Bills in Alabama,” “Here to Tell Ya,” and “Stage Lights.” These songs showcase his  dynamic storytelling and his ability to connect with audiences through vivid, heartfelt lyrics and  authentic Southern soundscapes. 

Adding to his list of accomplishments, Adam Hood celebrated his first #1 in Texas with “Can’t  Stand Leavin’,” and in October 2022, he made his Grand Ole Opry debut, a milestone that 

underscores his growing influence in the country music world. He has also recently recorded  songs with Ella Langley and Miranda Lambert, showcasing his ability to collaborate with some  of the industry's top talents. 

Adam Hood will always be found where there’s a stage, sharing his version of country music.  The essence, emotion, spirit, and institution of Southern music reside in Hood’s soul. He will  continue to write, perform, and share that mastery with his audience for years to come. “Music  should get under your skin and make you think and make you feel,” he exclaims. “Some people  get what I’m saying, some don’t. I want to say what I feel and hope others feel the same way.”
