Known as the hardest working band in country music, LITTLE TEXAS sold more than 3 million copies and have been nominated for a Grammy award, and performed with Clint Black, Travis Tritt and Trisha Yearwood.
LITTLE TEXAS was conceived in Nashville, Tennessee, by a handful of guys who were willing to do just about anything to bring their brand of rockin' county to the forefront of the music industry. Before hitting the big time, the band crisscrossed America playing every bar and honky-tonk from Myrtle Beach, S.C., to Los Angeles, CA, all the while writing songs that were destined to change the sound of modern country and perfecting a stage show that has been critically acclaimed worldwide.
The multi-platinum band is currently touring the country.
