Where Brayden truly thrives is on the road, performing over 100 shows a year. His high-voltage, in-your-face performances are nothing short of unforgettable. Whether he’s rocking major festivals like Boots & Hearts and Country Thunder or lighting up dive bars and Honky Tonks, King delivers an electrifying show to every stage.
