Kings Of Leon played a tiny last-minute show in Nashville last night (Thursday September 10) to kick off their new era. Check out footage and the full setlist below.
The band’s homecoming gig saw them run through a career-spanning 24-song set at the 575-capacity Basement East (via Setlist.FM). Caleb Followill and co. treated fans to the live debut of their new single, ‘My Whole World’, and were joined by Zach Bryan on ‘Bowery’.
KOL performed numerous classics and fan favourites, too. These included early cuts ‘Taper Jean Girl’, ‘King Of The Rodeo’, ‘The Bucket’ and ‘Molly’s Chambers’, as well as the hits ‘Sex On Fire’ and ‘Use Somebody’.
The slower and more atmospheric moments in the set came courtesy of ‘Milk’, ‘Knocked Up’, ‘Revelry’, ‘Manhattan’, ‘Wait For Me’ and ‘Arizona’.

Speaking about how the record is like a love letter to the band’s family and fans who have helped shape their journey so far, Caleb Followill explained: “We have already surpassed anything we ever imagined we could do, and we’ve built something that is so special.
“I thought, wouldn’t it be beautiful to make an album that is looking back on all of the things that we’ve done and appreciating how we got here.”
He continued: “In the songs, there’s our families, stories from our childhood, things that maybe didn’t seem that significant at the time, but the way they find their way into these songs kind of lets me realise how impactful they really were in my life.”
