Fort Worth: Silverada at Billy Bob’s Texas

Austin’s own Silverada — the band formerly known as Mike and the Moonpies — bring their road-tested dancehall country to Billy Bob’s Texas on Friday, August 21, 2026.

Showtime is 8 PM at Billy Bob’s Texas, 2520 Rodeo Plaza, the Stockyards institution built to hold 6,000 people on its dance floor. An earlier start means more time for two-stepping before the night is through.

Frontman Mike Harmeier was still in his early 20s when he formed the band in 2007, cutting his teeth on five-hour sets across Austin’s dancehall circuit before the group became global ambassadors for homegrown Texas music — flying their flag from the Grand Ole Opry to Abbey Road Studios, where they recorded 2019’s Cheap Silver and Solid Country Gold with the London Symphony Orchestra.

In January 2024, the band made a pivotal change, rebranding as Silverada and releasing a bold, self-titled album that same June. The new name hasn’t changed the songwriting that made them one of the most respected acts in Texas and Americana music — sharp, detailed storytelling backed by gorgeous swells of pedal steel and piano and a rhythm section that can shift from a country shuffle to hard-charging rock ’n’ roll without missing a beat.

Fort Worth gets a band that’s spent nearly two decades earning its reputation the old-fashioned way — one honky-tonk at a time.
