Artist Biography

Treaty Oak Revival, a powerhouse in the country rock scene, is a band that embodies the gritty, unfiltered spirit of West Texas. Formed in 2018 in Odessa, Texas, the band’s blend of Red Dirt country and punk rock energy has earned them a reputation for high-energy live shows and authentic storytelling. With Sam Canty at the helm as lead vocalist and acoustic guitarist, alongside Lance Vanley on rhythm guitar and background vocals, Jeremiah Vanley on lead electric guitar, Andrew Carey on bass, and Cody Holloway on drums, the band creates a sound that is both raw and deeply rooted in the Texas music tradition.

The release of their debut studio album, No Vacancy, in January 2021 marked their arrival on the scene. The album was a sonic snapshot of the West Texas landscape, melding country’s storytelling with punk’s unrelenting drive. Critics lauded the album for its authenticity, capturing the band’s ability to bridge the gap between traditional country and modern rock with ease. But Treaty Oak Revival didn’t stop there. In November 2023, they followed up with Have a Nice Day, an album that debuted at number 174 on the Billboard 200 chart—a testament to their growing influence in the music world.

With a sound that’s as wide-open as the West Texas skies and a stage presence that can shake the ground beneath you, Treaty Oak Revival continues to resonate with fans of both country and rock music. Their authentic blend of heartfelt lyrics, gritty guitar riffs, and infectious energy positions them as one of the rising stars in the country rock genre. As they continue to carve their path, Treaty Oak Revival is proving they’re not just a band, but a force of nature in the ever-evolving music scene.
