New “Home In Hometown Tour” USA Dates Announced as Band Releases First New Music in 3 Years

“We’ve written 143 songs and it’s just the beginning of our next chapter”

It’s widely known how award-winning Eli Young Band formed while together in Denton, Texas attending college at University of North Texas, however their journey over the next 20+ years would lead them everywhere, seldomly seeing home in between. With notions of longing ever present in their writing, it’s no surprise as they find their center as releasing music for the first time in three years independently with both home, and those who make it so, at the core. Listen to ‘Home In Hometown‘, HERE.
