Not Enough Whiskey For Kiefer Sutherland


There can never be enough whiskey...

Kiefer Sutherland is getting back on the road this year to play in more than 20 cities as the singer/songwriter announces his Not Enough Whiskey 2017 Tour (tour dates below). CLICK HERE to purchase tickets.

Momentum continues for Kiefer Sutherland’s music career and debut album, DOWN IN A HOLE, which includes 11 co-written tracks by Sutherland and producer Jude Cole.


Reviewers applauded Sutherland’s vocals, guitar licks and songwriting style when he performed more than 75 dates in 2016:

People may have come to see a celebrity up close, but Sutherland earned the crowd's respect through solid songs instead of star power...His original, unheard material dominated.
-Piet Levy, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel


Sutherland’s songs, which ranged from folk to blues-rock to straight-up country, were consistently strong – often with deep, telling lyrics…. His voice also was a cut above the expected celebrity singer...not afraid to be strong or gruff, and full of feeling because of it.
-John J. Moser, The Morning Call


His raspy, mid-rangy voice is expressive, and it gets the job done. Onstage, as you’d expect, he’s got personality. His band is superb...Their tight, punchy, sound puts across Sutherland’s hard-edged country-rock songs about love, pain, and regrets washed down with whiskey.
-Jim Beckerman, North Jersey News


Recently, Sutherland performed “Can’t Stay Away” on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and “Calling Out Your Name” on “The View.” Sutherland also graced the cover of Guitar Aficionado, Goldmine Magazine and Collectible Guitar issues.

“Kiefer Sutherland’s new album DOWN IN A HOLE casts the popular actor in the role of talented songwriter/musician, something as unexpected as a 24 plot twist. His voice and original material are strong, begging the question, “Kiefer, what took you so long?”
- Mike Ragogna, Huffington Post

- Ian Drew, US Weekly

Lick It! Kiefer Sutherland

Come To My Hole
Kiefer Sutherland
KIEFER SUTHERLAND ANNOUNCES NATIONWIDE 26-CITY TOUR AND DEBUT ALBUM 'DOWN IN A HOLE'

For a good time, join Kiefer Sutherland "Down In A Hole"


Kiefer Sutherland will bring his rich, soulful vocals and guitar licks to venues across the country beginning April 14 when he performs for audiences with a set list that includes cuts from his folk-tinged album, Down In A Hole, set for release this summer.

Sutherland, known for his starring role on the Fox series "24," will bring his debut tour as a musician to 26 venues across the country beginning April 14. More dates will be added.

A professional actor his entire adult life, Sutherland starred in movies like ‘Stand By Me’, ‘The Lost Boys’, ‘Young Guns’, Flatliners’, ‘A Few Good Men’, ‘A Time to Kill’, ‘Dark City’, ‘Melancholia’ and most recently, a western called ‘Forsaken’ and the upcoming ABC series “Designated Survivor.”

Unknown to many during the course of his career, he has taken on other vocations with the same kind of dedication and commitment. In 2002, Sutherland, with his music partner and best friend Jude Cole, began a small record label called Ironworks. The goal of this label was to record local musicians and distribute their music at a time when the music industry was going through a monumental shift. Some of their artists included Rocco DeLuca and the Burden, HoneyHoney and Billy Boy On Poison. In 2009, Sutherland left the label to recharge and figure out what he was going to do next.

In early 2015 Sutherland played Cole two songs he had written and wanted to record as demos for other artists to record. Cole responded positively to the songs and the album grew organically from those recordings. Two songs became four and four grew into six, until Cole suggested that they make a record. Their collaboration resulted in Sutherland’s upcoming debut album: Down In A Hole.

“It’s the closest thing I’ve ever had to a journal or diary. All of these songs are pulled from my own personal experiences. There is something very satisfying about being able to look back on my own life, good times and bad, and express those sentiments in music. As much as I have enjoyed the writing and recording process, I am experiencing great joy now being able to play these songs to a live audience, which was something I hadn’t counted on,” Sutherland said of the 11-track album. A track listing and release date will be announced soon.
