Country band Little Texas to play McCain Auditorium
Little Texas will give audience members a show to remember, full of their signature sound, tight harmonies and undeniable energy at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 2, as part of Kansas State University's McCain Performance Series.
The country band marks a major milestone in 2026: 35 years since their debut single, "Some Guys Have All the Love," hit country radio and quickly became a Top 10 breakthrough, launching a memorable run of hits of the 90s country era.
Little Texas has been praised for musicianship, songwriting, and authenticity. At a time when many acts relied on outside writers and studio players, Little Texas was one of the few bands of the movement who wrote their own songs and played on all their records.
The band went on to deliver 12 Top 20 singles, including three consecutive No. 1 hits: "My Love," "What Might Have Been" and "God Blessed Texas," the latter becoming a fan favorite and widely regarded as the unofficial Texas anthem.
Little Texas has sold more than 7 million albums. Their landmark sophomore album, "Big Time," achieved double-platinum certification and earned Grammy, CMA and ACM nominations, culminating in the 1994 ACM Award for Top Vocal Group.
In 2024, the cultural impact of “God Blessed Texas” was further cemented when Billboard named it the No. 1 Best Country Song Featuring Texas in the Title, and Lainey Wilson opened the ACM Awards with her electrifying rendition.
