Wyatt Flores celebrated the release of his second album, Scared of Heights, with an intimate, sold-out show at Skinny Dennis in Nashville on August 2, MusicRow reported on August 4. The free pop-up performance was one of only four album release shows the Oklahoma native announced to mark the new project.

Backed by his band in the packed East Nashville venue, Flores opened with the album's first track, "Hate Myself," immediately setting the vulnerable tone that runs through the record, before rolling into "Drive All Night," "Sober For A Month," "Not Good Enough" and "How To Let Me Go" as the crowd sang along to every word.

He kept the momentum going with "Half The Man," one of the project's early fan favorites, followed by "God Forgives," "The Way I Do" and "South Dakota," then welcomed fellow singer-songwriter Evan Honer to the stage for their collaboration "Take Me As I Come," which MusicRow said drew one of the afternoon's biggest reactions.

Flores returned to the new album for its title track, "Scared Of Heights," before slowing down for the reflective "Sleepless Lullaby," then picked the energy back up with "Runnin' On E" and "Tulsa and Eleanor," both met with loud singalongs from the standing-room-only crowd. He closed the set with a cover of the Turnpike Troubadours' "The Bird Hunters."

Scared of Heights is Flores's second album, part of his ongoing rise as an Oklahoma-rooted country singer-songwriter, and is tracked on the release calendar. MusicRow did not report further tour dates beyond the four release shows.
