When you visit the American South, you’ll hear the word “kinfolk” thrown around in conversation without a second thought. The term encompasses blood-related family members—no matter how distant—but it also goes beyond blood. Your “kin” can be those close friends whose relationship might as well be familial. For Southall, that idea extends to their fervent fanbase. Founded by vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter Read Southall, the PLATINUM-certified Country Rock outfit churns out the kinds of tunes that make everyone feel like family on their fifth full-length LP, Kinfolk [Smoklahoma Records]. The group unites dyed-in-the-wool Country, nineties Grunge, timeless Soul, and Americana into a striking signature sound, while they unify fans from the stage. Back in 2015, the Oklahoma-bred band introduced the masses to a boundary-breaking brew of Country and Rock with Six String Sorrow. Their vision further crystallized on 2017’s Borrowed Time, which yielded the PLATINUM-selling staple “Why.” They continued to captivate listeners with For The Birds [2021] and Southall [2023], bringing their total streams to nearly 1 BILLION. Celebrating a decade since their debut, The Six String Sorrow Sessions [2025] notably saw the six-piece re-record fan favorites from Six String Sorrow accompanied by everyone from Koe Wetzel and John Jeffers of Whiskey Myers to Hudson Westbrook. Road dogs through and through, they’re the rare collective who are just as comfortable bringing down the house at the Grand Ole Opry as they are sharing stages in arenas and amphitheaters alongside Whiskey Myers, The Black Crowes, ZZ Top, and Dwight Yoakam. Moreover, they’ve earned critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, People, Whiskey Riff and The Oklahoman to name a few. Throughout 2025, the guys crafted what would become Kinfolk. This time around, they opted to record in Norman, OK with GRAMMY-nominated producer Wes Sharon [John Fullbright, Turnpike Troubadours]. Blown away by the band’s set at BOK Center in Tulsa, he jumped at the chance to collaborate, encouraging them to embrace who they are in the studio. Ultimately, Southall have delivered another essential body of work for their kinfolk. “This is what I dreamed of when I started,” the frontman leaves off. “Aside from my family, Southall is the most important thing in my life. I eat, breathe, and sleep it. Over the last eleven years, we certainly weren’t handed anything. We earned our keep. It’s something I can hang my hat on and be alright with. It’s an honor to have my stamp on the music and my last name on it. I’m just thankful for everyone who’s a part of this thing—from the musicians and collaborators to the fans.”
