Fort Worth: Louie TheSinger at Billy Bob’s Texas
September 10 @ 9:00 pm
It’s a hometown headline show on Thursday, September 10, 2026, when Louie TheSinger brings his major-label debut to Billy Bob’s Texas — a homecoming for the Fort Worth-raised artist.
Showtime is 9 PM at Billy Bob’s Texas, 2520 Rodeo Plaza, the Stockyards dancehall built to hold 6,000 people. It’s a fitting stage for an artist who cut his teeth playing Fort Worth honky-tonks before anyone in Nashville would take a chance on him.
Born Luis Alfonso Palacios II, Louie grew up in Fort Worth on a mix of Tejano, country, R&B and hip-hop, and spent nearly twenty years grinding toward a music career before signing with MCA Nashville on the condition that he wouldn’t have to conform to anyone’s idea of what a Mexican-American country singer should sound like. His 2025 major-label debut, One For The Hometown, and songs like “Come and Take It” — where he sings “they say I ain’t country, but my people started this thing they call country” — have made him one of the most distinctive new voices in the genre.

A local country station once refused to play his music, calling it “country-rap.” Now he’s selling out headline tours and reminding audiences that the vaqueros of Texas were the state’s first cowboys. “I’m not here to say we’re taking it back,” he’s said. “I’m just here to remind y’all, it was meant for everybody.”
Fort Worth, come out and welcome one of your own back to the Stockyards.
