“If
I learned anything from growing up on a field surrounded by coaches and
athletes, it’s that you have to keep your head down and keep
practicing. Two hundred shows later, and I think we are ready to
go tackle our first club tour. It’s going to be cool to have Aubrie
out with us because we’ve gotten to be friends this year. She doesn’t
sound like anyone else out there, and her band is ridiculously good.
There’s no place better than a college town in the Fall…I’m really
excited to get started!”

Beathard’s Big Ten tour further signifies that “music and sports proliferate on Beathard’s family tree” (Cedar Rapids Gazette).
His grandfather, Bobby Beathard, was a longtime NFL general manager,
his two brothers currently play college football and his father Casey is
a hit songwriter. Honing his live craft one stage at a time, including a
much-coveted stint this year opening for superstar Dierks Bentley,
Beathard continues to make an impression out on the road. Sioux City Journal heralded his set as “a real showcase of his writing ability” while Palm Beach New Times raved Beathard “brought the energy with plenty of attitude and grit.”
