Jon Pardi’s ‘CMT On Tour Presents Jon Pardi’s Lucky Tonight Tour’ Fills Venues To Capacity At Soaring Levels

Pardi’s Momentum Builds with American Music Awards Favorite Song in Country Nomination and Multiple CMA Award Nominations Including New Artist Of The Year

New Single “She Ain’t In It” Impacts Radio On Oct. 23rd

Jon Pardi’s “CMT On Tour Presents Jon Pardi’s Lucky Tonight Tour” is filling venues to capacity at soaring levels. Selling out venues nationwide with audiences ranging from 1,000-5,500, Pardi’s traditional sound and tireless work ethic are picking up fans at a rapid pace including his recent first-time headlining performances at Grayson Stadium in Savannah, GA (10/13) with the most tickets sold since Bob Dylan in 2005 (Bradley Jordan, Peachtree Entertainment) and his upcoming performance at Billy Bob’s in Fort Worth, TX this weekend (10/21).

 

“Selling out a show at Billy Bob’s Texas is no small feat and very rarely does it happen well before the day of show. In fact, the last show to sell out days in advance of a performance was Florida Georgia Line in November 2013,” said Chris Spinks, Marketing Director for Billy Bob’s.

 

The 17-date trek kicked off on Oct. 12th and features special guests Midland and Runaway June. Nearly all tour stops are already sold out including major cities across the country; Chicago, IL, Milwaukee, WI, Detroit, MI, Silver Spring, MD and more. Opening weekend sold out in advance and all stops for the second week of performances are sold-out in Houston, Austin and Fort Worth, TX.

 

Pardi’s momentum continues to build with the recent American Music Awards nomination for Favorite Song – Country with smash-hit “Dirt On My Boots.” Stacking up an impressive year of accolades,  the reigning ACM New Male Vocalist Of The Year is also nominated for CMA Awards New Artist Of The Year category and “Dirt On My Boots’” is up for two categories including Single Of The Year and Song Of The Year.

 

Pardi just released his fourth single “She Ain’t In It,” which impacts radio on Oct. 23rd. He recently celebrated his third, consecutive No. 1 single “Heartache On The Dance Floor” on Mediabase charts. “Heartache On The Dance Floor”  follows the Platinum-selling No. 1 song “Head Over Boots” and three-week No. 1 smash “Dirt On My Boots” from Pardi’s #1 debut and Gold-certified album California Sunrise.

 

Pardi’s sound is undeniably country and his laid back, fun-loving approach towards life comes through in his music and his raucous live show. The California native’s charisma and authenticity strike a chord with country audiences and fellow artists alike. The rising country star has toured with Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Dierks Bentley and Zac Brown Band, and he was hand-picked by country legend Alan Jackson to join him on his 25th anniversary tour. He will join Miranda Lambert’s Livin’ Like Hippies Tour in early 2018. For a full list of tour dates and more information, visit www.jonpardi.com.

Kip Moore Set To Headline CMT On Tour 2014: Up In Smoke!

Kip MoorePLATINUM-selling singer/songwriter Kip Moore will headline the CMT ON TOUR 2014: UP IN SMOKE this fall.  The tour will kick off on Sept. 25 in New York, NY and will hit over 20 cities through November.  Moore has tapped newcomers Charlie Worsham and Sam Hunt to come along for the ride.  Tickets go on sale this Fri., June 6.  For a full list of dates and more information, visit: http://www.cmt.com/music/cmt-on-tour/2014/.

“We’ve been on the road pretty much non-stop for the past four years playing as much as we can wherever we can,” said Moore.  “When we started out sometimes there would only be five people at a show, and seeing the crowds grow over the years is really humbling and encouraging.  And now to be teaming up with CMT for a tour is a really exciting moment in my career.  We’ll definitely be playing lots of songs from the new album out on the road so it will be fun to test those out and see what the fans think.”

“Kip’s UP ALL NIGHT album swept us away with an edge and swagger that put him in a class of his own, coupled with three back-to-back No. one singles,” said Leslie Fram, SVP of Music Strategy, CMT. “The rest of the story is happening now and we’re proud to have him headline our 13th annual CMT On Tour, along with CMT Listen Up artist Charlie Worsham and hot newcomer Sam Hunt.”

Tonight, Moore will perform his new single “Dirt Road” for the first time on television when he stops by Late Night With Seth Meyers.  From there, he heads full force into CMA Music Festival week with a special performance outside Bridgestone Arena for fans to kick off the CMT Music Awards Red Carpet pre-show Wednesday night and will present later during the live awards telecast.

The Washington Post calls Moore “one of Nashville’s breakout stars…” while his album UP ALL NIGHT was the best selling debut album from any solo male country artist released in 2012 and 2013, and produced three back-to-back No. one singles with the PLATINUM-selling “Somethin’ ‘Bout A Truck,” “Beer Money” and “Hey Pretty Girl.”  His current single, “Dirt Road,” is from his upcoming sophomore album due out on MCA Nashville.  For the latest updates, visit www.kipmoore.net.

Nashville’s rising singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Charlie Worsham is currently on tour celebrating his new single “Want Me Too” off his critically-acclaimed album Rubberband. The album impressively landed on several of 2013 Best Of lists; including Spin’s “Best Country Albums,” American Songwriter’s “Top 50 Albums,” and Billboard’s “Top 10 Country Albums.”  For more information, please visit www.charlieworsham.com.

Sam Hunt is quickly becoming one of Nashville’s most talked about young talents. With a string of songwriting hits under his belt already, including Kenny Chesney’s No. one single “Come Over” and Keith Urban’s smash hit “Cop Car.”  As one of Rolling Stone’s “Ten Artists You Need to Know,” Hunt’s first commercial radio single “Leave The Night On” launches nationwide mid-June.  For more information, visit www.samhunt.com.
