Review by James Vince
It’s Sunday 2nd August, it’s a baking hot day in London, and it’s time for the Luke Combs “My Kinda Saturday Night” tour show at Wembley Stadium!
First off, can we talk about how amazing Thomas Rhett and his band are live?! I absolutely love a band that has real presence and isn’t just there as a backing band. Thomas sailed through his 11-song set, packed with hits like “T-Shirt”, “What’s Your Country Song” and “Crash & Burn”, with effortless stage presence.
And a huge shout-out to the amazing backing singers — man, those ladies can SING! We’ll definitely be looking at getting tickets for Thomas Rhett’s UK tour next April.
Then, at 8pm, it was time for the main event. Luke Combs himself took to the stage, and as soon as the opening notes of “My Kinda Saturday Night” rang out, you knew you were in for one hell of a show.
And iconic it was.
From start to finish, the show was packed with hit after hit, more singalongs than you could count, and so many incredible moments. Highlights included Thomas Rhett joining Luke for “1, 2 Many”, the end-of-tour beer shotgun with Luke and the rest of the acts from the UK tour, and, of course, the absolutely beautiful “Beautiful Crazy” singalong. The atmosphere was electric!
The band, known as The Wildcards, were absolutely on fire, and the singing members can REALLY sing, as demonstrated during the band covers segment. We were treated to stellar covers of “Crazy Train”, “She Will Be Loved”, “Billie Jean”, “I Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing” and “Something Like That”.
But then “Beer Never Broke My Heart” started… and, ooh child, if Wembley Stadium had a roof, it would have come off! The crowd absolutely lost it.
The 28-song set came to a spectacular close with “Ain’t No Love In Oklahoma” from the movie Twisters, complete with a shirtless drummer, a shirtless camera operator and one hell of a fireworks display. What a way to finish!
Luke has said on his socials that he’ll be back next year. C2C maybe? 👀
Until then, Luke, we’ll definitely “Tell ’Em About Tonight”.
FESTIVAL
BST HYDE PARK SATURDAY SHOW
London, UK • June 27 2026

Review by James Vince
This review focuses on the artists performing on the iconic Great Oak Stage. Unfortunately, with such an incredible line-up spread across multiple stages, we simply couldn't be everywhere at once!
Saturday 27th June arrived with soaring temperatures, clear skies over London, and one of the most anticipated days in UK country music history — BST Hyde Park's legendary "Garth Brooks Day."
For country music fans, this wasn't just another festival. This was Christmas morning, your birthday, and winning the lottery all rolled into one. A dream line-up packed with some of the biggest names in country music, all sharing one stage.
Kicking things off on the colossal Great Oak Stage, complete with its spectacular centrepiece oak tree, were UK country favourites The Shires. Having had the pleasure of meeting Ben twice before, it was fantastic to finally experience the duo live. Despite some frustrating technical issues (which mirrored Ben's worst nightmares), The Shires delivered a brilliant set packed with fan favourites and showcased exactly why they're one of the UK's biggest country acts.
Next up was social media sensation and coffee-loving country star Alexandra Kay. Bringing plenty of energy to the scorching afternoon, Alexandra delivered a powerful set filled with songs about heartbreak, divorce, toxic relationships, and finding the strength to move on. Special mention has to go to her guitarist and partner, Rocco, who looked like he was having the absolute time of his life on stage.
Then came one of country music's finest storytellers, Ashley McBryde. Joined by what she affectionately calls "the people I make music with," Ashley and her band somehow managed to raise the temperature even higher. The connection between Ashley and the Hyde Park crowd was genuinely special, with singalongs, laughter, and unforgettable moments throughout. And yes, "Brenda Put Your Bra On" was every bit as entertaining live as you'd hope.
The mighty Zac Brown Band were next to take command of the Great Oak Stage, and they absolutely delivered. It's been a while since I'd last seen them live, and I'd almost forgotten just how incredible this nine-piece powerhouse really is. I've always had a soft spot for Zac Brown Band, and this set reminded me exactly why.
Their blistering cover of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" was nothing short of phenomenal, while their new song "I Ain't Worried About It" introduced what might now be one of my favourite lyrics ever: "People keep trying to tell me how to live and I'm just over here, runnin' out of fucks to give." The stunning "Free / Into The Mystic" mash-up created one of the most magical moments of the entire day. And for once, it was actually possible to see what Zac Brown looks like rather than watching him as a tiny dot in the distance at an arena show!
Then came the moment 70,000 people had been waiting for.
The man. The myth. The legend. The GOAT.
After a 30-year absence from UK stages, Garth Brooks finally walked out in front of a packed Hyde Park crowd.
From the second he stepped on stage, it felt like history was being made.
What followed was a masterclass in live entertainment. Hit after hit, singalong after singalong, iconic moment after iconic moment. Garth brought an unbelievable level of energy, charisma, and showmanship, while his band sounded absolutely phenomenal throughout.
We sang every word to classics like "Two Piña Coladas," "Calling Baton Rouge," and "Ain't Going Down ('Til the Sun Comes Up)." We were taken to church during a roof-raising rendition of "Shout." We got goosebumps during the emotional performance of "The Dance." And together with 70,000 fellow fans, we belted out every word of "Friends In Low Places" in what felt like one of the biggest singalongs Hyde Park has ever witnessed.
The show had everything you could possibly want from a headline set — nostalgia, emotion, humour, energy, and unforgettable memories. Quite simply, it was worth every second of the 30-year wait.
Several times throughout the night, Garth became visibly emotional. He apologised for staying away from UK fans for so long and promised he wouldn't leave it another 30 years before returning.
And you know what, Garth?
You're forgiven.
BST Hyde Park 2026, take a bow.
That wasn't just a concert.
That was an iconic moment in UK country music history.

TUCKER WETMORE "BRUNETTE" TOUR SHOW
Birmingham, UK • April 26 2026

Review by Reegan Hamilton
Tucker Wetmore supported by Carter Faith at the O2 Academy Birmingham
There’s something special about a Sunday night show that feels like anything but—and that’s exactly what Tucker Wetmore delivered at the O2 Academy Birmingham. With support from Carter Faith, the night quickly turned into a full-blown country celebration that had the crowd on their feet from start to finish.
Carter Faith set the tone perfectly as the opener, her vocals echoing effortlessly around the room and immediately capturing the audience’s attention. Her natural humour and easy interaction with the crowd made the set feel warm and personal, while her cover of Slow Burn—a fitting choice given Kacey Musgraves’ recent time in the UK—went down a storm. It was a moment that truly showcased her range, leaving many in the crowd visibly stunned by the sheer power of her voice.
Then it was time for the main event. From the second Tucker Wetmore hit the stage, the energy shifted up a gear. Treating Birmingham like it was a Friday night, he had the entire venue rocking, blending confident stage presence with impressive crowd work. There was a clear chemistry between him and his band too—every beat, pause, and build felt perfectly in sync, turning the O2 Academy into a sea of movement.
The setlist was packed with fan favourites, including Wind Up Missing You, 3,2,1, and Sunburn, all of which kept the energy high. But it was Brunette—the centrepiece of the tour—that had the crowd dancing non-stop, a real highlight of the night.
Midway through, Wetmore stripped things back for a more intimate moment, stepping forward with just a couple of guitars and opening up to the crowd. Sharing that he’d recently finished recording his second album, he invited requests—something that only deepened the connection in the room. When he launched into Give Her The World and Drinkin’ Boots, the audience didn’t just sing along—they practically took over. Watching him sit back, smiling and soaking it all in, was one of the most genuine moments of the evening.
Throughout the entire show, it was clear Wetmore was exactly where he was meant to be. There was a point near the end where he simply crouched down, taking a second to watch the crowd and absorb it all—a quiet, powerful reminder that this wasn’t just another gig, but a dream being lived out in real time.
For one night in Birmingham, Tucker Wetmore brought a slice of Nashville across the Atlantic—and judging by the reaction, the UK will be more than ready when he returns.
