Colter Wall Louisville Palace  Tickets start at $77  |  8 p.m. Colter Wall has carved an interesting space out for himself in the world of alt-country, armed with a voice that’s in the realm of Johnny Cash and a heart that belongs to a different century. When almost everyone else is circling around Nashville and looking for a sound, his brain is off in some prairie, soaking in something that makes his songs feel original and wild.
