Flatland Cavalry, formed in Lubbock, Texas, in 2012 by childhood friends and college roommates Cleto Cordero and Jason Albers, is an energetic blend of country-folk-Americana whose sound and influence can be traced to the vivacity and showmanship of the Turnpike Troubadours, melodic stylings of John Mayer, and songwriting ability of renowned Texas artists such as Randy Rogers and Wade Bowen.
