Nitty Gritty Dirt Band To End 60-Year Career With Final

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band will perform their final show tonight in Denver, Colorado, concluding their “All The Good Times: The Farewell Tour” and six decades of performing together. The legendary country group celebrated their 60th anniversary with a Grand Ole Opry performance on May 13th in Nashville. The farewell tour began in 2024 but was extended into 2026 to mark the milestone anniversary. Founded in Long Beach, California in 1966, the band released 27 albums and earned three Grammy Awards. Their biggest hits included three number-one songs: “Long Hard Road (The Sharecropper’s Dream),” “Modern Day Romance,” and “Fishin’ in the Dark.” Current members include founding members Jeff Hanna and Jimmie Fadden, along with Bob Carpenter, Jaime Hanna, Ross Holmes, and Jim Photoglo.
