On a crisp Wednesday night in Los Angeles, the legendary Troubadour played host to a band that’s redefining the sound of modern country with heart, harmony, and a whole lot of grit. Restless Road rolled into town as part of their Goin’ Out Like That Tour, a 20-date spring trek that’s quickly becoming a victory lap for the breakout trio. And with a sold-out crowd, a buzz of anticipation, and a setlist that spanned both fan favorites and fresh new tunes, it was clear from the first chord: this wasn’t just another tour stop. This was a moment.

The stage lights flickered as Zach Beeken, Garrett Nichols, and Colton Pack stepped into the spotlight—three voices, one powerful sound. From the opening number to the final encore, the trio’s chemistry was undeniable. Longtime fans know the group’s origin story—three solo artists thrown together during their run on The X Factor—but on this night, they didn’t just perform like a band. They performed like brothers.
Leaning into songs from their 2023 debut album Last Rodeo, the setlist was a love letter to their journey so far. Tracks like the tender, wedding-ready ballad “Growing Old With You” and the introspective anthem “I Don’t Wanna Be That Guy” were met with loud cheers and louder singalongs. Each harmony was tight, each lyric felt lived in. This was a band that’s not only found its voice—it’s found its audience.
One of the night’s most compelling moments came when the trio introduced their newest single, “Work On Me.” Stripped back and soul-baring, the ballad revealed a deeper layer of artistry, weaving vulnerability and self-reflection into their signature sound. “This one’s about those moments when you realize you’ve got some things to fix, and someone still loves you through it,” Beeken shared with the crowd, drawing quiet nods and a few teary smiles. The applause that followed was thunderous.
But as much as the music dazzled, it was the venue that helped make the night unforgettable. The Troubadour, steeped in decades of music history—from Elton John’s breakout performance to timeless shows by Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor—offered a close-up connection rarely found on the road. Fans were practically leaning on the stage, singing every word, eyes locked on the band like they were witnessing something special. Because they were.
Restless Road’s Los Angeles stop wasn’t just a concert. It was a celebration of how far they’ve come—and how far they’re destined to go. Their evolution from reality show hopefuls to country chart-climbers isn’t just inspiring. It’s proof that perseverance, talent, and a whole lot of harmony can turn a dream into a headline tour.
As the trio heads on to the next leg of the Goin’ Out Like That Tour, with cities like San Diego, Roseville, Boise, and Seattle still to come, one thing’s certain: Restless Road isn’t just going out like that—they’re going up like never before.
