Our favorite country rocker, HARDY, brought a six-pack of hits to 3,000 fans on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! backlot on Tuesday night (May 21).

Marking the first time the stage had been used since 2019, the 'wait in the truck' hitmaker was clad in all black during the block party, sponsored by Outlaw Light Beer, as he ran through some of his most electrifying tunes and beloved fan-favorites.

When it came to air time, HARDY performed a spirited rendition of 'ROCKSTAR,' which is due to appear on his recently confirmed new album, Quit!!, set for release on July 12.

Off-air, though, is when the real party kicked in as the Mississippi native treated attendees to one hit after another, starting with the just-released 'PSYCHO.' It was the first live performance of the high-octane tune, set to be featured on the upcoming record.

From there, it was off to the races as he delivered impassioned versions of his breakthrough hit, 'BOOTS,' as well as '.30-06,' 'JACK' and 'TRUCK BED,' all from his critically-acclaimed 2023 album, the mockingbird & THE CROW.

Forming essentially a countrified mosh-pit in the middle of Hollywood, the packed out crowd sang back every song, heads banging along all the while as HARDY proved his undeniable star power.

Where the mockingbird & THE CROW was a perfectly crafted half country, half rock opus, HARDY's upcoming effort will see the genre-bending maestro doubling down on his rock influences and style.

A 5x ACM and 2x CMA award-winner, HARDY has made a name for himself as one of country music's most in-demand songwriters, scoring a whopping 15 No. 1s for his one-of-a-kind lyricism. Since diving head first into the artist waters, he's consistently toed the line between country and rock, making this upcoming endeavor into the metal scene come as not much of a surprise.

As we await the release of Quit!!, HARDY will find himself in the midst of his headlining Quit!! Tour, as well as on hand at several major festivals throughout the summer.
