Sturgill Simpson

In August 2024, Sturgill Simpson took the stage at Golden Gate Park for the Outside Lands festival, showcasing his vibrant live presence in front of an enthusiastic crowd. Leading up to this energetic performance, he'd recently released 'Johnny Blue Skies,' an album that continued to push the boundaries of his musical style. This recording came at a pivotal moment in Simpson's career, as he embraced a more experimental sound that intertwines country, rock, and elements of psychedelia. Fans were eager to see how he'd translate this new phase live, especially as he kicked off his 'Why Not? Tour.' It's fascinating to note how Simpson's artistry has evolved; he's not just a singer or songwriter anymore but a musical storyteller who's firmly positioned himself as a genre-defying artist.
