Experience an evening of heartfelt songwriting, rich Americana storytelling, and Idaho‑grown musical grit as Colby Acuff brings his Handmade Horsepower Tour to 9th St. Parallel at the Knitting Factory in Boise on Thursday, March 19, 2026, at 8:00 PM. Doors open at 7:00 PM, and the show is all ages. Tickets range from $24.10 to $66.33, with a ticket delivery delay—all tickets will be emailed 48 hours before showtime.
A fifth‑generation Idahoan, Acuff grew up in Coeur d’Alene, where the changing landscape of a once blue‑collar community deeply shaped his perspective and artistry. His sound is steeped in the music he was raised on—Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, and classic bluegrass—all of which inform his raw, reflective approach to modern country and Americana. After releasing his debut Life of a Rolling Stone in 2020, Acuff quickly followed with If I Were the Devil (2021), Honky Tonk Heaven (2022), and his Nashville‑recorded projects Western White Pines (2023) and American Son (2024).
Following the release of American Son, Acuff and producer Eddie Spear set out to reshape his next era—speaking directly with listeners to take the pulse of what fans were craving. The resulting direction emphasizes resilience, optimism, and honest reflections on American life, themes that anchor his nationwide 2026 Handmade Horsepower headline tour. Acuff, who has toured with artists like Luke Combs, Charles Wesley Godwin, 49 Winchester, Midland, Whiskey Myers, Flatland Cavalry, Jon Pardi, and Muscadine Bloodline, now brings that momentum to Boise for an unforgettable night of storytelling and soul‑stirring performance.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to Acuff’s authentic style, this show offers the perfect chance to experience one of Idaho’s strongest modern country voices in a powerful live setting.
