Colby Acuff
$20.00
A fourth generation Idaho native with a rugged spirit true to his mountain home, honest-to-a-fault lyrics and a sound as raw as the remote wilderness, Colby Acuff’s untamed brand of country stands proudly apart in today’s format, pure and untouched by modern gimmicks. From two-stepping honky tonk anthems with a frontier philosopher's eye, to serene campfire confessions, full of spiritual scar tissue and road-weary wisdom, every track on his first three independently released albums was written entirely solo and pulled straight from the life he actually lived – and because of that, none were your “typical” country song. Working with acclaimed producer/engineer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Brandi Carlile, Cody Jinks) Acuff’s Western White Pines arrived in 2023 on Sony Music Nashville. Another batch of gritty, solo-written songs – plus the first ever co-writes of a promising career – it introduced a country talent as wild and free as the Idaho mountains themselves and was lauded as one of the year’s best by Saving Country Music, Whiskey Rif , Country Chord, and more. With new music coming soon, Acuff is currently on the road with Flatland Cavalry, and will join Luke Combs for stadium shows across the country throughout the summer.
