Among the top acts in the region, Tris Munsick and the Innocents continue to gain recognition, sharing their brand of country music with audiences.

“Tris Munsick is the real deal,” says Chancey Williams, a UW graduate from Moorcroft. He and his Younger Brothers Band currently tour extensively across the U.S. and have released six albums. “Tris can write about and represent cowboy culture because he was born in it and lives it. Tris is an artist who is really finding his voice in the American West.”

Constantly on the road, Munsick and his band have shared the stage with such country recording artists as Big & Rich, Lyle Lovett, BlackHawk, the Eli Young Band, Cody Johnson, Casey Donahew and Marty Stuart. The band also has performed at the National Finals Rodeo opening ceremonies in Las Vegas.

Munsick was raised on his family’s Sheridan County ranch and earned his master’s degree in 2016 from the UW College of Agriculture, Life Sciences and Natural Resources, focusing on production economics.
