Corey Kent '24 Live out now
“Poised to be country’s latest red dirt star” (Rolling Stone), Corey Kent closed 2024 with the release of his live album, ’24 Live. The project can be streamed HERE. Now Corey prepares to visit the UK & Ireland with his ‘Black Bandana Tour’, which hits The Academy in Dublin on 1st February and concludes in London at the Electric Ballroom on 11th February 2025.
The album allows listeners to experience Kent’s dynamic live show as the project was captured from the combination of Kent’s two sold-out dates at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, OK last year.
In addition to the release of ’24 Live, Kent released performance videos to accompany the project, including a video for his song “Bixby,” the encore on the live album – watch HERE. Written by Kent and Smith Ahnquist, the unreleased song has become a fan favourite over the years and pays homage to Kent’s hometown, the perfect finale for a show so close to Kent’s home.

Now based in Dallas, Corey Kent, a proud husband and father, has become a decorated artist on the rise, growing from humble heartland roots into a Double-Platinum certified No. 1 hit maker with one billion career streams, and a black bandana on his neck. But today, that Black Bandana is more than an accessory – and not just the title track of his sophomore major-label album, which Music Row calls, “gently but unrelentingly uplifting.” It’s his rally cry.
Rising from the vibrant Red Dirt country scene as the embodiment of authenticity, Kent set his sights on Nashville as a teen, bringing his self-penned catalog of country-rock anthems with him. But after the pandemic coincided with the loss of his first publishing deal, Kent was forced to move to Texas and get a job on a paving crew to pay the bills, yet he stubbornly refused to call music quits. Honky-tonks and dancehalls on both sides of the Red River became his stomping ground, and slowly but surely, the black bandana spirit grew.
Fast forward a few years and the hit single “Wild As Her” proved he was right all along. An untamed tribute to a free-spirited stunner, the track re-invigorated Kent’s career as a now Double-Platinum-certified No. 1 at country radio, and the lead single off his major label album debut, Blacktop. Despite never cracking country radio’s Top 40, Kent’s trust-your-gut second single “Something’s Gonna Kill Me” went Gold (and is now approaching Platinum status), proving his message was connecting. And momentum kept building, with Kent hitting the road alongside Jason Aldean, Ashley McBryde, Parker McCollum and more. Next-big-thing accolades came in from CMT, Opry Next Stage and more, but even as Kent became the most played new artist on country radio for all of 2023, he kept the underdog, who-cares-about-conventional-wisdom mentality. And so did his fans.
For Kent, the point was that his fans have the same independent spirit he does, and he took that lesson into his next chapter. Settled into his ranch in Texas and intent on being fully present as husband and father, while also achieving his dreams, his second album is all about finding balance, keeping clear eyes on what’s important – and waving that Black Bandana for all to see.
