Already receiving critical attention, Music Row declares, “His energy and his reedy, heartfelt voice are infectious,” while The Amp praises, “This is the artist and the quintessential country album that we have all been desperately searching for…Western White Pines is pure lightning in a mason jar” and The Nash News proclaims, “the kind of country music that derived from the mountains of its forefathers.”

In celebration of the new music, Acuff will make his Grand Ole Opry debut on Tuesday, August 1 and continue to tour through this summer including dates supporting Shane Smith andamp; The Saints, as well as a show as part of the Whiskey Jam Tailgate, which takes place ahead of Luke Combs’ sold-out US stadium tour. See below for complete tour itinerary.

Reflecting on the album, Acuff shares, “Western White Pines is a project full of some of my favorite songs. The record is unique in all aspects of the word. You will never hear the same song twice, but you will know that it’s a Colby Acuff record.”

Originally from Coeur d’Alene, ID, Acuff dove into music at a young age, learning piano at age 5, drums at age 9 and guitar at age 11, before performing for the first time at age 12. In the years since, Acuff has released three albums independently—2020’s Life of a Rolling Stone, 2021’s If I Were the Devil and 2022’s Honky Tonk Heaven—earning nearly 60 million on-demand streams to date. Acuff has also toured extensively across the country including shows with Lainey Wilson, Flatland Cavalry and 49 Winchester among many others.
