Whiskey Myers
Ameris Bank Amphitheatre — Alpharetta, GA

Whiskey Myers are a five-piece country-rock band from Texas who've built a devoted following by doing the outlaw country thing without irony or apology. They landed on the mainstream radar in 2014 with their self-titled album, but "Broken Window Serenade" and "Wishful Thinkin'" are the songs that actually stuck with people—gritty, lived-in country that sounds like it was written in a bar at 2 AM. Their albums "Mud" and "Whiskey Myers" established them as one of the few contemporary country acts willing to get weird and rowdy instead of polished. They tour relentlessly, which is the only way they've survived in a country market increasingly hostile to their particular brand of authenticity. The band's strength is in their tightness as players and their refusal to chase trends. They're the kind of act that builds a rabid regional following first, then gradually convinces bigger audiences that country music doesn't have to be manufactured.

Their shows are sweaty, beery, and loud. Crowds get rowdy in a genuine way—not manufactured festival energy. The band feeds off it, extending songs, getting messier as the night goes on. You'll see a lot of standing room only crowds of people who actually know the words.

Known for Broken Window Serenade, Wishful Thinkin', San Angelo, Coyote

Whiskey Myers brought their Texas country swagger to Ameris Bank Amphitheatre on October 18, pulling from a catalog that spans their grittier early work to newer material. They stretched into deep cuts like 'Frogman' and 'Broken Window Serenade' alongside anthems like 'John Wayne,' the kind of setlist that rewards longtime fans. They closed things out with a cover of 'Johnny B. Goode,' which felt like the right kind of nostalgia for a crowd that clearly knows these guys can do more than just country.

Atlanta's music DNA runs deep in hip-hop and R&B, but the city's got a solid undercurrent of country and Americana that often gets overlooked. Whiskey Myers should find kindred spirits in the local venues and audiences who appreciate raw, guitar-driven storytelling. The Southeast has always been fertile ground for their kind of no-frills country-rock.

Stay in Buckhead or Virginia Highland for the neighborhood feel — tree-lined streets, good restaurants, walkable enough to actually enjoy yourself. For dinner, Sotto Sotto does excellent Italian in a no-fuss basement setting, or Rathbun's for steak if you want something more formal. Spend an afternoon at the High Museum of Art, then grab drinks at The Eagle, which has the kind of dark-wood-and-whiskey vibe that actually works. Catch a Braves game at Truist Park if timing lines up. The food scene here is legitimately good without being try-hard about it.
