Colton Ryan at Red Rooster IceHouse

The Red Rooster IceHouse in Hawkins keeps one of the most dependable live music calendars in the region, and November is no exception. On Friday, November 20, 2026, Colton Ryan takes the icehouse stage for a night of country songwriting and honest live performance, about 30 minutes from the property.

Show details

About the artist

Colton Ryan brings a songwriter's approach to country music, the kind of set that works best in a room where people are actually listening. His songs play like working-class country in the classic sense, steady rhythms, clear stories, and a voice that carries over the hum of an icehouse crowd. On a Friday night in late November, it is the kind of show that makes a 30-minute drive from Titus County feel like a small event in itself.

The venue

The Red Rooster IceHouse sits on North Beaulah Street in Hawkins and has become a fixture of the Northeast Texas live music scene, booking everything from regional artists to touring country names. Its brick-and-neon roadhouse character makes every night feel like a proper small-town show. Hawkins is a straight 30-minute drive west of 1786 County Road 1070, an easy run through the pines and pastures that define this part of the state.

For someone considering a move to the 8 acres at 1786 County Road 1070, the calendar at places like the Red Rooster is part of the everyday argument for the area. Live music is never more than a half-hour away, in some direction, most weekends of the year.
