Hubbard, formerly one-half of the chart-topping duo Florida Georgia Line, has carved out a solo path that resonates with authenticity and country charm. His self-titled debut album, released in 2023, has already amassed over 1.3 billion streams, featuring hits like “5 Foot 9” and “Dancin’ In The Country” which have become anthems in their own right. His accolades include multiple CMA, ACM, AMA, and CMT Music Awards, a testament to his impact on the country music landscape.

The setlist was a blend of nostalgia and novelty, with Hubbard’s solo material seamlessly interwoven with Florida Georgia Line classics like “Cruise” and “Meant to Be.” The crowd, bathed in the warmth of the clear weekend weather, sang along to every word, their energy peaking as the temperature hit the 90s on Sunday.
Hubbard’s band, a talented ensemble of musicians, added depth to the performance. Their bios, while not as publicized, tell a story of seasoned artists who have toured extensively and contributed to numerous records in the country scene. Their cohesion on stage was palpable, each member bringing a unique flair to the collective sound.

The Faster Horses Festival’s headliners, Jelly Roll, Lainey Wilson, and Hardy, set a high bar, but Hubbard’s Friday performance on the main stage was a standout moment. It was a showcase of his evolution as an artist, his ability to command a stage on his own, and his connection with the fans.
In a weekend filled with star-studded performances, Tyler Hubbard’s set was a reminder of the power of country music to unite and inspire. It was a clear indicator that his journey as a solo artist is not just a fleeting endeavor but a new chapter in an already storied career. The Faster Horses Festival was all the richer for his presence, and fans are already looking forward to what Hubbard will bring to the stage next.
