Hippies & Cowboys, the electrifying Southern rock and soul band out of Nashville, just released the second single, ‘Midnite Rose‘ from their upcoming EP ‘Fork In The Road‘. The EP release date is Sept. 27th, just in time for the band’s performance at Pilgrimage, the popular arts, music and culture festival in Franklin, Tenn. Hippies & Cowboys’ first national tour kicks off this fall.
Produced by Casey Wasner and recorded at his Purple House Studio in Leiper’s Fork, the four original songs on the EP were written or co-written by H&C lead singer Aaron Sparling. Singles include ‘Give It Up‘ which hit July 12, ‘Midnite Rose‘ (Aug. 30th), and ‘Ain’t No Good‘ (Sept. 13th). ‘Fork In The Road‘ features two bonus tracks and will be available on all major streaming platforms.

“We want our music available to the masses,” lead singer Aaron Sparling said. “Our fans are asking for more original music, so we’re hitting it hard to deliver with the rapid release of these singles. The national tour gives us the opportunity to perform in front of new audiences across the country. The entire band is stoked about this next round of music and touring.”
In addition to Pilgrimage, Hippies & Cowboys will debut their new music at the other major Tennessee music festival, Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion in Bristol, TN/VA – Sept. 13-15. Fall tour dates include Phoenix (10/10), Los Angeles (10/13), Las Vegas (10/14), Detroit (10/17), Milwaukee (10/18), Bloomington, IN (10/21), and back to their hometown of Nashville on 10/25.

“With this EP, we created a real rock ‘n’ roll record, keeping the sounds of yesterday alive in today’s modern musical world.” Sparling continued. “‘Fork in The Road’ has something for everyone, whether you’re looking for a hard-hitting edge or a ‘peaceful, easy feeling,’ we’re servin’ it up Hippies & Cowboys-style to our fans.”
Most recently Hippies & Cowboys performed for Jon Bon Jovi’s launch of his downtown club JFJ’s Nashville, in the heart of Music City’s Broadway Honky Tonks. The invite-only private party coincided with the release party of Bon Jovi’s 16th studio album ‘Forever‘. During their set, Hippies & Cowboys front man Aaron Sparling welcomed Bon Jovi keyboardist David Bryan onto the stage to jam a few classic tunes before Bon Jovi performed.
