About Restless Road

Made up of three different but complementary voices, country band Restless Road is “one of the most intriguing and exciting acts of the year” (Wide Open Country). Praised by People, Taste of Country, Billboard, and more, the trio’s powerhouse harmonies and soul-baring lyrics have accumulated over 227 million cumulative career streams and amassed a following of over 4 million on their social media platforms. As NBC’s Today Show host Hoda Kotb put it, “That harmony…you feel it in your soul.”

 

For the past 10 years, Restless Road has been honing their craft, nurturing their songwriting skills, and perfecting their signature harmonies.  In 2019, the trio we know now, Zach Beeken, Colton Pack and Garrett Nichols came back together with a sense of refreshed energy. After signing with Kane Brown’s joint venture with Sony Music Nashville, the band began their journey to success.

 

The trio released their self-titled debut EP in 2020, as well as a string of singles including “Bar Friends,” “Sundown Somewhere,” and their Sirius XM The Highway #1 hit “Growing Old With You.”  The success of the track and a performance on ABC’s The Bachelor catapulted the trio into a new level of stardom.  With the trios "captivating melody and lyrics" (American Songwriter), the trio has been featured by Billboard, CMT, EXTRA, The Today Show, and more and was recently named as one of Opry’s Next Stage Artists and Spotify's Hot Country Artists to Watch.

 

2022 proved to be a successful year for the trio on the touring front as they embarked on both Kane Brown’s US & international Drunk or Dreaming Tour and US Blessed & Free Tour as well as their own sold out headline Bar Friends Tour.  The band has also toured with Jordan Davis, Chase Rice, Russell Dickerson and Chris Lane.

 

Restless Road released their highly anticipated debut album, ‘Last Rodeo’ in October of 2023, and are currently in the middle of their 2024 Last Rodeo Headline Tour, followed by tours with Tim McGraw and Cole Swindell later this year.

 

With all signs indicating Restless Road as a contender for best new vocal group, its members continue to write, sing, and perform together as they take the next steps down country music’s long and winding road.
