Country music group to retire from touring after 20 years on the road

Popular country music band Town Mountain is stepping away from touring.

The band announced the news recently on Instagram.

“After two decades on the road and just over 1500 shows together, Town Mountain will be stepping away from touring following our fall run,” a statement on the band’s page read. “This was not an easy decision, but it is one we made together with a lot of respect, reflection, and love for what we’ve built.

“Our last shows will take place this fall, wrapping up on October 26th at the Ardmore Music Hall,” the statement continued. “We’d love to see as many of you as possible along the way. These dates mean a lot to us, and we’re bringing the same fire and energy you’ve always come to expect from a Town Mountain show.

“Whether it’s your first or your fiftieth, we hope you’ll come be part of this run,” the statement added. “These shows will be special. Who knows what the future holds, but thank you for being part of the ride. We are forever grateful.”

The band’s announcement means that its final shows will play out in Pennsylvania as it is slated to perform at The State Theatre in State College on Oct. 25 and at the Ardmore Music Hall in Ardmore on Oct. 26.

Suggest noted that Town Mountain formed in 2005 and built a loyal fanbase.

“Look at this comment section!” Jake M. Blount responded to the band’s announcement. “You are loved! And 20 good years is about as much as anyone can hope for. Be proud, and I look forward to seeing what awaits you all.”
