Goodnight, Texas, with Cowboy Guts

Goodnight, Texas is the band you’ve probably heard without realizing—maybe in a Coors Banquet ad with Sam Elliott, the opening theme of Tiger King, or your friend’s playlist. But what pulls people in is their ability to spin stories—of coal miners, outlaw lovers, and oil field workers—through soaring harmonies, intricate songwriting, and a live show that shifts from off-mic acoustic whispers to foot-stomping rock-outs. Their latest album Signals captures this dynamic range like never before, even featuring a blazing guitar solo from Metallica’s Kirk Hammett, who became a fan after their cover on The Metallica Blacklist.They’ve been spotlighted by Rolling Stone, NME, and Consequence of Sound, played SXSW and Austin City Limits, and toured with acts like Shakey Graves and Trampled by Turtles. With over a quarter billion streams, they’re the band you discover, then wonder how you didn’t know about sooner. Named after a tiny town exactly halfway between their co-founders’ hometowns, Goodnight, Texas isn’t just another Americana act—they’re a genre-spanning, storytelling powerhouse that’ll have you hanging at the merch table long after last call.
