“Once in a Mile.” Written by Morgan and Brent Anderson\, the new song comes as Morgan’s current single “Kid Myself” is inside the Top 10 on the radio charts and climbing. Listen to “Once in a Mile” HERE. \nIn “Once in a Mile\,” Morgan turns the drive back home into an unraveling of memories – every passing mile stirring up the ghosts of a love that used to exist there. The production carries its own sense of momentum\, a steady\, driving pulse that mirrors the highway itself\, propelling the song forward even as the lyrics pull backward into the past. Built on classic country instrumentation with a warm\, nostalgic glow\, the track captures that bittersweet ache of proximity: the closer you get to home\, the closer you get to what you lost. Morgan’s grounded\, emotive vocal delivery sits at the heart of it all\, turning a simple road trip into a quietly devastating meditation on memories and heartbreak. \nJohn Morgan will be out on the road this fall.\nTour Dates\nSeptember 4 – Seneca\, OR – John Morgan: Live at Silivies\nSeptember 5 – Lakeview\, OR – Lake Country Round-up\nSeptember 6 – Filer\, ID – Twin Falls Country Fairgrounds\nSeptember 10 – Cashmere\, WA – Chelan Country Fair\nSeptember 12 – Ashland\, VA – Country Jam III Music Festival\nSeptember 24 – Boston\, MA – Leader Bank Pavillion*\nSeptember 25 – Uncasville\, CT – Mohegan Sun Arena*\nSeptember 26 – Verona\, NY – Turning Stone Resort Casino*\nOctober 1 – Huber Heights\, OH – Rose Music Center at The Heights*\nOctober 2 – Rockford\, IL – BMO Center*\nOctober 8 – Port Wentworth\, GA – VyStar Pavilion\nOctober 9 – Roanoake Rapids\, NC – Carolina Crossroads Amphitheatre*\nOctober 15 – Youngstown\, OH – Covelli Center*\nOctober 16 – Cincinnati\, OH – PNC Pavilion*\nOctober 17 – Toledo\, OH – Huntington Center*\nNovember 5 – Macon\, GA – Atrium Health Amphitheater*\nNovember 6 – Biloxi\, MS – Mississippi Coast Coliseum*\nNovember 7 – Corinth\, MS – Crossroads Arena*\nNovember 15 – Jacksonville\, FL – Greater Jacksonville Agricultural Fair \n* Brantley Gilbert’s “Real American Tour” Date\nKEEP UP WITH JOHN MORGAN \nAbout John Morgan:\nGRAMMY-nominated and 6x #1 hitmaker\, John Morgan delivers country music with a blue-collar edge rooted in the only life he knows. Raised in Sylva\, North Carolina — a small town in the Great Smoky Mountains — he grew up playing bluegrass festivals in his family band. Now a “Music City songwriting star” (Tennessean) and “in-demand songcrafter” (Billboard)\, John has written 16 songs for Jason Aldean alone — including Aldean’s #1 hits “How Far Does A Goodbye Go\,” “Trouble With A Heartbreak\,” “Whiskey Drink\,” “Don’t Tell On Me” and the GRAMMY®-nominated “If I Didn’t Love You” with Carrie Underwood. His songs have also been recorded by Jon Pardi\, Dustin Lynch and Thomas Rhett. After years behind the scenes\, John’s breakout moment came with his debut single “Friends Like That (feat. Jason Aldean)\,” which shot to #1 at country radio — earning him his fourth #1 as a songwriter and first as an artist. Morgan’s songwriting also earned him the coveted CMA Triple Play Award. The momentum continues with his debut album Carolina Blue\, out now. A blend of raw storytelling and small-town soul\, the project features the rising single “Kid Myself\,” currently climbing the charts. Having already played the Grand Ole Opry and toured with Jason Aldean\, Kane Brown\, Riley Green\, ERNEST\, Nate Smith and more\, John is heading out on Brantley Gilbert’s “Real American Tour” this fall where he will sing his hits and preview new music like his latest release “Once in a Mile.” John has a track record that proves that he’s not just one of Nashville’s most sought-after songwriters – he’s one of its next big stars. \nSocial Share\n Share on Add Us (Opens in new window)\n Add Us\n \n Share on Instagram (Opens in new window)\n Instagram\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n Bluesky\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n More\n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n \n Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n Reddit\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n Mastodon\n \n Share on Telegram (Opens in new window)\n Telegram\n \n Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n Nextdoor\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://wheartm.com/event/jax-john-morgan-at-greater-jacksonville-agricultural-fair-nov-15-2026/ LOCATION:Greater Jacksonville Agricultural Fair\, 13601 Normandy Boulevard\, Jacksonville\, FL\, 32221\, United States CATEGORIES:Jacksonville ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheartm.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/John-Morgan-at-Greater-Jacksonville-Agricultural-Fair-Nov-15-2026.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20261115T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20261115T235959 DTSTAMP:20261102T184437Z CREATED:20261020T202254Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261102T184437Z UID:83994-1794700800-1794787199@wheartm.com SUMMARY:Mpls: Everclear at Mystic Lake Casino Showroom (November 15\, 2026) DESCRIPTION:November 15\, 2026 Sunday EverclearAmerican Hi-Fiat Mystic Lake Casino Showroom\n\n90s alternative favorite Everclear is bringing their “Lucky 7 Tour” to the Mystic Lake Casino Showroom\, in Prior Lake\, on November 15\, 2026. Doors open at 7pm\, but it is recommended you arrive early due to parking and security and entry.\n Everclear at Ponte Vedra Concert Hall (Oct 12\, 2025) \n\nWe saw Everclear in Oct 2025 and wrote\, “Very much like last year’s appearance\, Everclear is serving their fanbase\, who loves them. Looking at the audience\, there were some 12-year-olds (some with mohawks)\, so their parents were passing their love of Everclear to their children. This is a generational thing\, but it might also be family thing\, as they might relate to Art Alexakis’ very personal song\, “Father of Mine”. However they found themselves\, they were certainly waiting to hear those songs from The Sparkle and Fade (and So Much for the Afterglow). Alexakis knows this\, and would occasionally tease us with snippets of those songs\, like “Santa Monica”. “We’ll get to that!” Speaking of fans\, Alexakis came on wearing an Everclear cap\, and it’s probably a gimmick now\, but he said he’s a loser for wearing his own band merch. Let’s fix that\, he then offers it to his loyal fanbase. After which\, his familiar black fedora-style hat was brought on stage for him to wear.”\n American Hi-Fi to open. \nTour Dates\n\nNovember 1 Denver\, CO @ Gothic TheatreNovember 3 Salt Lake City\, UT @ The ComplexNovember 5 Cheyenne\, WY @ The LincolnNovember 6 Wichita\, KS @ The CotillionNovember 7 Omaha\, NE @ The Astro TheaterNovember 8 Kansas City\, MO @ The TrumanNovember 10 Des Moines\, IA @ Hoyt Sherman PlaceNovember 12 Champaign\, IL @ The City CenterNovember 13 East Moline\, IL @ The Rust BeltNovember 14 Madison\, WI @ The SylveeNovember 15 Minneapolis\, MN @ Mystic Lake Casino ShowroomNovember 17 Fort Wayne\, IN @ Clyde TheatreNovember 19 Cleveland\, OH @ House of Blues ClevelandNovember 20 Cincinnati\, OH @ BogartsNovember 21 Louisville\, KY @ Caesars Southern Indiana Event CenterNovember 22 Nashville\, TN @ Brooklyn Bowl Nashville\n\nSocial Share\n Share on Add Us (Opens in new window)\n Add Us\n \n Share on Instagram (Opens in new window)\n Instagram\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n Bluesky\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n More\n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n \n Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n Reddit\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n Mastodon\n \n Share on Telegram (Opens in new window)\n Telegram\n \n Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n Nextdoor\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://wheartm.com/event/mpls-everclear-at-mystic-lake-casino-showroom-november-15-2026/ LOCATION:Mystic Lake Casino Showroom\, 2400 Mystic Lake Blvd\, Prior Lake\, MN\, 55372\, United States CATEGORIES:Minneapolis ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheartm.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Everclear-at-Mystic-Lake-Casino-Showroom-November-15-2026x.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20261115T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20261115T235959 DTSTAMP:20261102T203928Z CREATED:20261102T203056Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261102T203928Z UID:86599-1794700800-1794787199@wheartm.com SUMMARY:Mpls: Porcelain at Zhora Darling (November 15\, 2026) DESCRIPTION:November 15\, 2026 Sunday Porcelainat Zhora Darling\nAustin post-hardcore band Porcelain is headlining Zhora Darling on November 15\, 2026.

If you want to pay respect\, her friends and family is holding a In Loving Memory of Tara Grimmer: A Celebration of Her Life at Sports Page Bar & Grill\, in Bloomington\, on November 15\, 2026. There will be a reading at 7:30pm. \nMessage from surviving band members:\n\nTo our faithful Fuzzy Machete community. Thank you for all your support over the years. Tara will live on through her music\, friendships and many artists she inspired in her time with us. Our hearts are broken but our sisterhood is eternal. We will miss you\, Tara. \n💜In Loving Memory of Tara Alexandria Grimmer \nIt is with heavy hearts that we share the news that Tara Alexandria Grimmer passed away peacefully on Friday\, October 9\, 2026\, surrounded by the love and cherished memories of those who held her dear. \nTara was beloved by all who had the good fortune to know her. Brilliant\, witty\, and an endless wellspring of knowledge\, talent\, and compassion\, she touched and inspired the lives of countless artists\, musicians\, students\, friends\, and family members. \nA lifelong Minnesotan with roots in the Iron Range\, Tara graduated from John F. Kennedy Senior High School and Mankato State with a Bachelor of Arts in Music Theory. She went on to build a successful career in technology\, working for prominent companies\, including McKesson and Apple. As a SQL developer\, she found joy in the daily challenges of her profession\, approaching her work much as she approached life: with curiosity\, creativity\, and a love of solving puzzles. \nTara leaves behind an extraordinary legacy spanning music\, theater\, film\, recording and production\, philanthropy\, luthiery\, mentorship\, and so much more. \nAn accomplished musician\, music producer\, live music promoter\, stand-up comedian\, and actress\, Tara was a vibrant and influential presence in the Twin Cities arts community. She produced several albums\, played electric guitar with the rock trio Fuzzy Machete\, and performed on upright bass with the alt-folk group Christof Rochel and the Wine-Soaked Goliards. \nShe founded and fronted the acclaimed glam rock cover bands Parental Advisory and Victory Riot\, and performed with local groups including The Slide Rules\, A Pink Dream\, SpeedWeed\, The Drug Budget\, Hey Guys\, The Distance\, Super Hecking Valid\, and Lost Evidence. \nTara graced countless stages from Minnesota to Texas\, performing at events including CONvergence\, AniMinneapolis\, Warped Tour SendOff\, Twin Cities Pride\, the NorthStar Roller Derby Championships\, and the Renaissance Festival. \nBeyond her accomplishments as a performer\, Tara was a passionate advocate for her community and a tireless supporter of causes close to her heart. She organized and hosted countless benefit shows\, raising funds for local musicians and organizations supporting causes such as Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW)\, the Angel Foundation\, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)\, and the Transgender Law Center. \nA devoted champion of the Twin Cities music scene\, Tara created and curated the Better Than Life Showcase\, a recurring live event held several times a year that brought together talented local singer-songwriters and performing artists\, each personally selected by Tara. \nHer talents and expertise were recognized well beyond the local stage. In 2018\, she was invited to serve as a judge for the Karaoke World Championships in Minnesota and Las Vegas. \nIn 2020\, Tara made her theatrical debut in the lead role of Rue in Uprising Theatre Company’s production of Doctor Rue Voynich and Her Children. Her film debut followed in 2021\, when she portrayed the “After Party DJ” in Strange Trajectory Production’s Valentine Crush. \nWhen Tara wasn’t commanding a stage\, championing a cause\, or bringing people together\, she embraced life with the same boundless enthusiasm she brought to her creative pursuits. \nShe adored spending time with her beloved Shiba Inu\, Tabi. She loved playing softball\, cheering on the Minnesota Lynx and Timberwolves\, skateboarding\, gaming\, reading comics\, and immersing herself in all things science fiction and anime. She brewed excellent beer\, attended everything from arena concerts to five-dollar local band shows\, and treasured time spent with her vast circle of friends. \nAs we grieve her passing\, we are reminded of the countless beautiful ways Tara brought people together\, the unforgettable moments we shared\, and the lasting impact she made on everyone fortunate enough to be part of her world. \nTara was our frontwoman\, bandleader\, cheerleader\, DJ\, officiant\, game master\, bassist\, shredder\, firstborn\, sibling\, daughter\, niece\, aunt\, mother\, best friend\, and invincible sister. \nShe was so many things to so many people\, and the world is a little less bright without her in it. \nTara is survived by her mother\, father\, brother\, aunts\, cousins\, and her beloved niece and nephew\, whom she adored and doted upon. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her. \nA celebration of Tara’s life is being planned to honor her memory and bring together the many people whose lives she touched. Details will be shared here as soon as arrangements have been finalized. \nIn the meantime\, we kindly ask that you allow her family and friends the time and space they need to mourn\, reflect\, and support one another during this difficult time. We are deeply grateful for your understanding\, compassion\, and respect for their privacy as we navigate this loss together. \nWe also invite you to continue sharing your photographs\, stories\, and cherished memories of Tara here\, on CaringBridge\, and across social media. These remembrances are a beautiful way to celebrate her life\, honor the joy she brought to others\, and keep her spirit alive in the hearts of those who loved her. \nFor those who shared memories\, messages\, and kind words before her passing\, please know that Tara heard them. She knew how much she was loved. \nThank you for the extraordinary love\, kindness\, and support you have shown Tara and those closest to her. \nThough she is no longer with us\, the music she made\, the lives she touched\, the memories we share\, and the love she gave so freely will remain with us always. \nMay her memory live on in the stories we tell\, the music we play\, the moments we cherish\, and the love we continue to share. \n\n\nSocial Share\n Share on Add Us (Opens in new window)\n Add Us\n \n Share on Instagram (Opens in new window)\n Instagram\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Bluesky (Opens in new window)\n Bluesky\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n More\n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n \n Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n Reddit\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Mastodon (Opens in new window)\n Mastodon\n \n Share on Telegram (Opens in new window)\n Telegram\n \n Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n Nextdoor\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://wheartm.com/event/mpls-in-loving-memory-of-tara-grimmer-a-celebration-of-her-life-at-sports-page-bar-grill-november-15-2026/ LOCATION:Sports Page Bar & Grill\, 9014 Lyndale Ave S\, Bloomington\, MN\, 55420\, United States CATEGORIES:Minneapolis ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wheartm.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/In-Loving-Memory-of-Tara-Grimmer-A-Celebration-of-Her-Life.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
