Rich O\u2019Toole, a staple of Texas Country music for nearly two decades, returns to the Fort Worth Stockyards on May 8 for a headlining show at Tannahill\u2019s Tavern and Music Hall in Mule Alley.<\/p>\n

Hunter Hicks, whose songs \u201cCheers to Disagree\u201d and \u201cSnakes In Tall Grass\u201d were featured prominently in season two of the popular, locally-produced Taylor Sheridan series, \u201cLandman\u201d, will be supporting O\u2019Toole opening the show.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

O\u2019Toole was one of the first Texas artists to hold a concert fundraiser for victims of the devastating Texas floods and frost responders last July. That concert event<\/a>, which The Dallas Express partnered to help promote and support, along with others O\u2019Toole held around the state, raised nearly half a million dollars for Texas flood relief.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DX caught up with the Texas Hill Country-based O\u2019Toole, who\u2019s currently touring behind his new album \u201cGod is a Gentlemen.\u201d<\/p>\n

O\u2019Toole told DX, \u201cIt\u2019s so great to be back on tour, and the absolute highlight of this one for me is playing Tannahill\u2019s in the Fort Worth Stockyards. Anytime I\u2019m blessed to play the iconic Stockyards is special \u2013 there\u2019s so much history of legendary artists there \u2013 but I\u2019m a huge fan of the venue and what Tim Love has done there in Mule Alley. I\u2019ve been to several shows there myself, but it will be my first gig there, so I couldn\u2019t be more excited for this one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked about \u201cGod is a Gentleman,\u201d O\u2019Toole says, \u201cThe human loss of the flood really hit me hard. I had close friends who lost children in the flood, and I basically spent the second half of last year reflecting on the impact of that tragedy, which also directly affected some prominent artists I know. \u201cGod is a Gentlemen\u201d is a product of my personal self-reflection and resetting my own personal priorities after all the loss and pain I saw.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s some raw, stripped-down songs as a result, but the show is also a celebration of life, and we\u2019ll have plenty of fun befitting a Stockyards Friday night playing a lot of old and new favorites.\u201d<\/p>\n

Doors at Tannahill\u2019s open at 7 pm on May 8, and tickets for this show and other Rich O\u2019Toole tour dates are available<\/a> on Ticketmaster.<\/p>\n
