Country-Rock breakouts Southall are taking their hard-charging Southern style international, revealing a series of European tour dates this summer as a part of their SOUTHALL WORLD TOUR.  

Making the announcement early February (2/5) on social media, the group is set to visit major cities across the U.K., Germany and Netherlands this year. Kicking off August 21 in Glasgow, before continuing on with stops in London, Cologne, Amsterdam and more, Southall returns to Europe for the second time since their shows in 2023 with Blackberry Smoke – this run marking their first as headliners.  

“We had such a blast on our first trip overseas, and we’re thrilled to finally visit our brothers and sisters in Europe again. We hope to shake every hand and hug every neck— so come on out and share an evening with us!" says Southall’s Reid Barber. 

In addition, Southall have joined The Long Road Festival 2024 bill in good company among 35+ names including Russell Dickerson, American Aquarium, Brittney Spencer, Chapel Hart, Colbie Caillat, Jamie Lawson, Pokey Lafarge, Flatland Cavalry, Randall King, Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, Red Clay Strays and more. 

Known for its Country, Americana, Roots, and culture immersion, The Long Road Festival is set to return for its fifth year at Stanford Hall, Leicestershire, U.K. this August 23-25.

It all follows their explosive self-titled album released in September via Smoklahoma Records, which has earned the band acclaim from tastemakers like Rolling Stone for “infuse[ing] rock and metal into the band’s coffee shop vibe.” 

Featuring 11 tracks pulling on stylistic threads from hard charging ‘70s Rock and gritty Southern Soul to grooving back-alley Blues and beyond, SOUTHALL includes fan favorites like the road-weary romantic rocker “When You’re Around,” the soul-searching psychedelic anthem “By Surprise” and the swampy juke-joint dancer “Scared Money” – plus their latest focus track, the rootsy Alt-Rock throwback “All I Have.”

Formerly known as Read Southall Band, the GOLD-certified group (“Why”) has three albums behind them, boasts more than 467 MILLION total streams, and has 1.5 MILLION cumulative monthly listeners. They spent the last few years building a rabid grassroots following on the road, winning over crowds with Whiskey Myers, Chase Rice, and on their headlining run as an epic breakout takes shape.

ABOUT SOUTHALL:
Founding member Read Southall hails from Oklahoma and is joined in the six-piece group by Reid Barber, Jeremee Knipp, Braxton Curliss, John Tyler Perry and Ryan Wellman. Southall's musical influences range from Country to Rock to Metal and more in between, making for a wholly original sound reminiscent of "being in the crowd at a young Merle Haggard show," according to The Anniston Star. The guitar-driven band never loses focus on meaningful lyrics, penning tunes that speak to every aspect of life and help drive a Rock and Roll experience for their audience, whether they're listening at home or at a packed show. The Smoklahoma Records act throws gas on the fire beneath their fast-rising career with their most recent release, SOUTHALL – their raw and explosive self-titled album. Southall's 2021’s FOR THE BIRDS features the epic six-minute long single "Where We Belong" and “impressive standout” (Raised Rowdy) “Rose Gold” and follows their 2017 album BORROWED TIME, which includes their RIAA GOLD-certified single "Why." Full of ‘70s Soul, Country-inspired lyricism and Rock and Roll heart, Southall’s music draws packed crowds and evokes old-school Country and early Grunge all at once. The band has tallied over 467 MILLION total streams and 1.5 MILLION cumulative monthly listeners. With more new music to come and a passion for the road, Southall is just getting started.
