After a decade spent notching five No. 1 albums on Billboard‘s Comedy chart (with two of those also debuting inside the top 10 on the Country Albums chart), Wheeler Walker Jr. will soon be riding off into the sunset. Later this year, he will release his final album and launch his final tour.
His final album, titled Pullin’ Out, will release Sept. 25, and he will launch his concluding tour, Pullin’ Out: The Farewell Tour, on Oct. 15.

Walker Jr., the country music alter ego of comedian Ben Hoffman, is known for his crude and comedic lyrics on songs such as “Redneck S—t” and “I Like Smoking Pot.” With his 2016 debut album, Redneck Sh—t, he became the the first artist to simultaneously chart on Billboard‘s Country Albums and Comedy Albums charts.
“I can’t do this anymore,” Walker Jr. said in a statement. “Every song in Nashville is written by twelve idiots named Chase about trucks they don’t own and farms they never worked on. I really don’t wanna be around when country music becomes fully AI, which sadly will be better than most of the crap they’re putting out now.”
The tour will visit cities including Austin, Boston, Detroit Los Angeles, Seattle, and several cities in Canada, before wrapping with a show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on May 15, 2027. Tickets for the Pullin’ Out: The Farewell Tour go on sale Friday (June 12) at 10 a.m. local time.
Pullin’ Out marks the sixth Wheeler Walker Jr. record produced by Grammy winner Dave Cobb, known for his work with Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson and more. To preview the album, Walker Jr. also released the new song and video, “F—k This Bar.”
