Country Night

On 17 September 2026, Nygadehuset in Aabenraa welcomes J. Tex & The Volunteers for Country Night. Singer, guitarist and storyteller, J. Tex writes lean, road-tested songs where country, folk and a touch of blues meet. Expect steady grooves, twangy guitars and melodies that move forward without fuss. The band keeps it close to the bone: clear structures, tight interplay, and lyrics that sketch places, faces and small turns in the day.

On stage, they play with contrast and space. A train-beat shuffle can slide into a slow waltz, a barroom sway can give way to a quiet ballad. The Volunteers let the songs breathe, building tension with dynamics rather than ornament. It’s about tone, tempo and pulse, and the way a chorus lands after a patient verse.

Country Night is a chance to hear J. Tex & The Volunteers up close, with a set that shifts from foot-tapping runners to late-night slow burners. Straightforward, warm and grounded, the music leans on storytelling and feel, carried by a voice that keeps its distance while saying just enough, and a band that knows when to push and when to hold back.
