**Austin Meade with Cole Barnhill live at Eddie's Attic!**
***Austin Meade*** stands at the crossroads of rock, country and alternative; building a sound as raw and real as the life he writes about. Raised in small-town Texas by a preacher who took him to see AC/DC and Judas Priest, Meade grew up on both the grit of Red Dirt and the power of guitar-driven rock. That duality fuels his music today: honest, confessional songs that hit with the swagger of rock 'n' roll and the storytelling heart of country. After years of relentless touring, Meade broke out with Black Sheep (2021), which has generated tens of millions of streams on fan favorites like "Happier Alone" and "Cave In." He followed with Abstract Art of an Unstable Mind (2022) and Pretty Little Waist (2024), featuring his first Top 25 rock radio single, "BLACKOUT." His new album, Almost Famous (2025), is his boldest statement yet-an anthemic, personal collection that bridges the gap between southern rock grit, country storytelling, and alternative edge.
Praised by SPIN for his "in-the-moment freedom" onstage, Meade has shared bills with artists ranging from Sevendust & Shinedown to Jelly Roll &
Treaty Oak Revival; winning over fans in both rock and country spaces. Genre lines blur in his world-but one thing is clear: Austin Meade is building a lane all his own.
