Wheeler Walker Jr. « Pullin' Out: The Farewell Tour »

Wheeler Walker Jr. brings Pullin' Out: The Farewell Tour to History Ottawa in Ottawa on November 14, 2026. Behind the Stetson is comedian and writer Ben Hoffman, who shaped this Nashville-based alter ego into a full-on country act after a 2013 sketch on The Ben Show. The project took off with Redneck Shit in 2016, produced by Dave Cobb, then rolled on with Ol’ Wheeler (2017), WW III (2018), Sex, Drugs & Country Music (2022) and Ram (2023). On stage, Wheeler Walker Jr. plays it straight musically—traditional country, outlaw edges, a dose of country rock—while pushing satirical, explicit lyrics that twist familiar themes with deadpan bite. That tension between classic arrangements and crude, comedic storytelling is the core of the show. The set typically spans his full catalog, swinging from barroom stompers to slow burners recast with a wink, carried by a tight band steeped in Nashville aesthetics. Along the way, the project has toured widely in the U.S., hit the Ryman Auditorium in 2022, and shared bills with Tyler Childers, Sturgill Simpson and Nikki Lane—context that hints at the mix of honky-tonk chops and comedic nerve he brings to the stage.
