Garrett Bradford Releases ‘Honkiest of Tonkers – Act II’

May 23, 2025/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Texas artist Garrett Bradford has released Honkiest of Tonkers – Act II, the second installment of his two-part album, today (May 23) via H.O.T. Records.

Raised on a ranch in Weatherford, Texas, Bradford’s upbringing in the rodeo and ranching world shapes every line he sings. The project showcases his signature blend of raw Texas grit, traditional country and heartfelt storytelling and is a continuation of the sound that’s earned him growing acclaim.

The new collection includes a fresh radio version of Bradford’s breakout track “This Way of Life,” the song featured on Yellowstone that helped catapult Bradford onto the national stage, and the updated version is a nod to the song’s impact on his career. Honkiest of Tonkers – Act II also features fan favorites like “She Loves Horses,” the boot-stomping “One Two Step,” and emotional standouts like “Give Dad A Call” and “Just A Little.”

Bradford is set to perform as part of the “Turn It Up! Texas” lineup on June 4 at Category 10 in Nashville.

Honkiest of Tonkers – Act II Track List:
1. “This Way of Life” (Garrett Bradford)
2. “Comanche Moon” (Garrett Bradford)
3. “Firefly” (Garrett Bradford, Greg Manuel Sr.)
4. “One Two Step” (Garrett Bradford, Greg Manuel Sr.)
5. “She Loves Horses” (Garrett Bradford, Tammy Hyler)
6. “Just A Little” (Garrett Bradford, Tanner Hill)
7. “Trouble In The Pines” (Garrett Bradford)
8. “Give Dad A Call” (Garrett Bradford)
9. “This Way of Life – Radio Version” (Garrett Bradford)
