Introduction
At an age when many artists slow down, Ronnie Dunn and Kix Brooks are doing the exact opposite — proving that true legends don’t fade, they ignite.
On New Year’s Eve in Nashville, the iconic duo stormed the stage at Nashville’s Big Bash and delivered a performance that felt anything but nostalgic. When the opening notes of “Brand New Man” rang out, it was instantly clear: time has not dulled their edge.
With the city lights blazing behind them and thousands of voices rising from the crowd, Brooks & Dunn commanded the moment with confidence, power, and unmistakable joy. This wasn’t a ceremonial appearance or a victory lap. It was two artists fully locked in — sharp, energized, and still deeply in love with what they do.
After 35 years of filling arenas and soundtracking countless lives, their connection to the audience remains unshaken. Every chord carried pride. Every lyric felt lived-in. Ronnie Dunn shared that life has never felt better, while Kix Brooks joked they had enough fuel left to play dozens more shows without missing a beat.
And they’re not slowing down anytime soon. A new album is on the way. More tour dates are ahead. The road continues.
Because when passion still burns this bright, experience doesn’t weigh you down — it lifts you higher.
