Joining him on the road are breakout artist-writers Rhys Rutherford, Chandler Walters, and Cody Lohden, all of whom are signed to ERNEST\u2019s DeVille Records as well as Cadillac Music Publishing. Together, the lineup underscores ERNEST\u2019s growing influence not just as a performer, but as a creative hub for a new generation of Nashville talent.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the setlist from ERNEST&#8217;s show in Nevada on January 24th:<\/p>\n<p>Ain\u2019t Too Late<\/p>\n<p>Tennessee Queen<\/p>\n<p>Who\u2019s Your Daddy?<\/p>\n<p>Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)<\/p>\n<p>On the Road Again<\/p>\n<p>Why Dallas<\/p>\n<p>Sugar<\/p>\n<p>Lorelei<\/p>\n<p>Cowgirl Stay<\/p>\n<p>Take Me to Montgomery<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the Way Love Goes<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy the Broom<\/p>\n<p>I Had Some Help<\/p>\n<p>Wasted on You<\/p>\n<p>I Think I\u2019ll Just Stay Here and Drink<\/p>\n<p>Turn Me Up<\/p>\n<p>Hate a Small Town<\/p>\n<p>Family Tradition<\/p>\n<p>Would If I Could \/ The Chair<\/p>\n<p>Feet Wanna Run<\/p>\n<p>Gettin\u2019 Gone<\/p>\n<p>Flower Shops<\/p>\n<p>The tour follows the November release of \u2018Live From The South,&#8217; a sonically rich project produced by ERNEST alongside Jacob Durrett that leans into guitar-picking, fiddle, and pedal steel. The collection captures an artist settling confidently into his own voice, grounded in gratitude and themes of family, faith, and building a meaningful life. <\/p>\n<p>That momentum continues this week as ERNEST looks ahead to his next chapter with the release of \u2018Lorelei,&#8217; arriving Friday. The new single finds him heading even further south, embracing island time and signalling more new music to come later this year. <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/ernest.ffm.to\/lorelei\">Fans can pre-add and pre-save \u2018Lorelei&#8217; now HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source entertainment-focus.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GRAMMY-nominated artist, songwriter, and producer ERNEST officially launched his Live From The South tour last Thursday night, kicking things off in Jackson Hole, Wyoming with a packed show at the legendary Million Dollar Cowboy Bar.
