New Braunfels: Flatland Cavalry at Whitewater Amphitheater

There is a reason Texans call Whitewater Amphitheater the Red Rocks of Texas. Nestled on the banks of the Guadalupe River, below the canyon bluffs, and right in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, Whitewater Amphitheater is not simply another live music venue — it is a destination. A one-of-a-kind outdoor music experience for a diverse crowd of both Texans and tourists. A summer tradition. A bucket-list play. And on Monday, Aug. 17, 2026, that destination gets one of the most exciting acts in Texas country music when Flatland Cavalry brings their Work of Heart Tour to the riverbank at 8 PM.

Born and built in Lubbock, Texas, Flatland Cavalry has spent a decade becoming one of the most beloved bands to ever come off the High Plains. Whether hot-trotting in a 12-passenger van in the early days, caravanning on colossal treks with Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, and Lainey Wilson, or headlining their own months-long tours with a Who’s Who of historic venue sellouts along the way, Flatland Cavalry remains “at the fore of the red dirt renaissance,” according to Rolling Stone.

The band is out on the road behind their brand-new fifth studio album, Work of Heart. The 12-track album is a collection of songs written while touring and taking their music on the road — things experienced, emotions felt, and real life lived. Frontman Cleto Cordero noticed the word “heart” appeared often when this batch of songs came together, and the result is Flatland’s most personal record yet. The past couple of years have been full of milestones for the band — their first ACM Award nomination for Group of the Year, their first RIAA Gold certification for breakout single “A Life Where We Work Out,” and featured placements on Taylor Sheridan’s hit shows Yellowstone and Landman.

With four albums, six number-one singles on the Texas Country Music Charts, and over 500 million streams to their name, Flatland Cavalry has put in the work and earned every seat in every sold-out venue they’ve played. Hearing them perform those songs live — on a warm July night with the Guadalupe River rolling behind the stage, canyon bluffs framing the sky, and cypress trees swaying in the Hill Country breeze — is an experience that reminds you why Texas music is unlike anything else on the planet.

With a capacity of 5,600, Whitewater Amphitheater hosts some of the hottest and legendary names in music in one of the most beautifully unique and intimate settings in the country — on the river and under the stars. Seating options include general admission, preferred sections, and VIP Sky Boxes with private bars and premium sightlines.
