He’s a singer with one of the most recognizab­le voices on country radio, a songwriter and now Randy Houser has added movie producer to his name.

Houser’s film “Magnolia” premiered in September on CMT Network, inspired by his critically acclaimed fifth studio album of the same name, which was released in January. Houser is currently touring in support of his “Magnolia” album, and stops in the Tivoli Theatre on Saturday, Nov 2. Paul Cauthen will open the concert.

The film follows Noah, an oil pipeline/rig worker as he returns home to the Gulf Coast to confront his past while also determinin­g his future. The film was shot in Houser’s home state of Mississipp­i, and Houser plays a local bartender/singer at the town dive, performing several acoustic versions of songs off the album.

Houser served as executive producer for the film and co-wrote every song on the album.

But it’s his authentic, down-to-earth, rollicking toe-tappers like “Boots On” and “Runnin’ Outta Moonlight” that fans will be coming to hear Saturday night.
