Jason Momoa's new band plays in Nashville, brings out this Nashville artist

Jason Momoa and his new band ÖOF TATATÁ stopped in Nashville for a show at Cannery Hall on Tuesday night.

Their visit to Music City also included a surprise show, a guest appearance from a Nashville singer-songwriter, and some time exploring the city.

Ahead of the show, the band popped into Tin Roof on Broadway to play a surprise concert for fans.

On X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, Momoa said, "We had a small impromptu performance @tinroofbroadway getting ready for tonight @canneryhallnashville who is ready to see some @oof_tatata and drink some @meilivodka."

The band—comprised of Momoa on the bass, Kenny Dale Borill on the drums and Mike Hayes on vocals and guitar—is touring in promotion of Momoa's vodka brand, Meili Vodka.

At the band's surprise show at Tin Roof, Momoa poured his vodka for fans and took shots with them.

According to social media, the band also stopped by Nashville's Gibson Garage to play some guitars on May 21.

What to know about Jason Momoa's new band

In a video, Momoa said that the band's tour started in Montana and after Nashville, they are headed to play shows in Austin, Santa Monica, Hollywood, Chicago and Hawaii.

The band played their first show together at a party in New Zealand in April with guest appearances from Rita Ora and Jack Black on vocals. (Momoa and Black recently wrapped filming "Minecraft" the movie together, slated to release on April 4, 2025).

The band's original performance in New Zealand could also relate to the band's name. ÖOF TATATÁ translates to "Oof, Almost" in Māori, the language of the Māori people, the indigenous Polynesian people of mainland New Zealand.

At the first performance, fans said the band covered Black Sabbath, Hendrix, Zeppelin, Metallica and Stevie Nicks.
