“We knew that you just have to hang in there and put out quality music, and timing will present itself. “I’m very humbled by how positive the reaction has been with all the fan interaction digging the music,” says guitarist John Jeffers. We are very thankful that people are digging it.” “It’s really awesome to see people reacting to our music, taking a two-year-old album to the No. “Getting asked to be on ‘Yellowstone’ was a cool opportunity and we are very honored to be a part of it since we are all big fans,” says lead vocalist and guitarist Cody Cannon. At the time of posting, all three albums from Whiskey Myers were still in the iTunes Top 10 in country. On the iTunes country songs chart, the song “Stone” was in the Top 10. Also their album Firewater came in at #3 in country, and the album Early Morning Shakes came in at #9. In the aftermath of the episode, the band’s most recent album Mud went #1 on the iTunes country chart, and Top 20 all genre on the hourly-updating aggregator. On the fourth episode of Yellowstone, Whiskey Myers wasn’t just featured as part of the soundtrack, the band was filmed performing in a bar, which resulted in the nearly two million viewers crashing the internet to try and find more information and music from the band. But it rarely results in the massive boost Whiskey Myers has enjoyed. TV and movie placements happen pretty often for independent bands these days, and in lieu of radio it is one stream of exposure and revenue for bands otherwise ignored by mainstream media. Fans of the Texas Music Southern Rock band Whiskey Myers had fair warning they would be featured prominently in the most recent episode of the Paramount Network’s original series Yellowstone starring Kevin Costner, but nobody had an idea it would result in such an incredible boost in exposure and sales for the band.
