Flatland Cavalry made their headlining debut at the iconic Ryman Auditorium last Saturday (February 10). The band delivered a 20-song setlist before launching into a multi-song encore for the sold-out crowd. They played original songs as well as covers. One of those covers was Toby Keith’s “Should’ve Been a Cowboy.”

Keith passed away on February 5 and left the wider country music community in mourning. Before he died, the Oklahoma native created a catalog of music that inspired countless younger artists. Cleto Cordero and the rest of Flatland Cavalry are likely among those that Keith’s music helped to shape. As a result, the band and their opener, Colby Acuff performed one of the late singer’s signature tunes for the Ryman crowd.

“Y’all sing it for Toby, now,” Cordero said, introducing the song. He took the first verse. Then, Cordero and Acuff shared vocal duties on the first chorus before Acuff took center stage to sing the second verse.
