90s country music icons Little Texas touring 30 years after debut

MARSHALL, Texas (KTAL/KMSS) — Best known for their hit, award-nominated songs “God Blessed Texas” and “Kick a Little,” multiple-time Grammy nominees Little Texas have been making waves on the country chart since forming in 1988.

This fall, the Nashville-based group is celebrating the 30-year anniversary of its debut on the country music charts with a tour, including a performance in Marshall.

The band boasts writing or co-writing, recording, and playing every note on every single they’ve released. Those releases have yielded 12 Top 20 singles (with 7 Top 10s and 3 No. 1s) and received multiple Grammy, Country Music Awards (CMA), and Academy of Country Music (ACM) nominations, winning the ACM for Top Vocal Group of 1994.

Lead guitarist and vocalist Porter Howell said, “It’s amazing that the run we had was 30 years ago, and here we are, still out there touring and having a blast, if not the most fun we’ve ever had. We are very grateful to still be playing these songs for fans, and to look out and see people who could not have possibly been alive back then singing every word is so gratifying. 90s country music is still going strong, and we are thrilled to have a place in it.” 

Little Texas will rock the stage at the Memorial City Hall Performance Center in Marshall, TX, on October 11, 2025. Tickets go on sale on August 4.
