NASHVILLE, TN. – Oct. 14, 2019ACM “Dick Clark Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean closed out his 2019 RIDE ALL NIGHT TOUR Friday (10/11) in Arlington, TX, with a monumental night at the Texas Rangers’ Globe Life Park stadium. Serving as the last Country music act to perform at the venue and “engineered for the big, euphoric stadium performance” (Dallas Observer), Aldean delivered new music from his forthcoming studio album 9 (Macon Music/Broken Bow Records) to be released Nov. 22, including the album’s fiery lead single “We Back.” As the 30-city trek came to a close, Aldean was joined by tour mates Kane Brown, Carly Pearce, Dee Jay Silver and invited Texas’ Giovannie & The Hired Guns along to kick off the night.

The multi-Platinum entertainer is know to make “fan fervor reach a roar” (Times Colonist), while “bringing his live show to massive crowds in arenas and stadiums” (Rolling Stone) and his 2019 RIDE ALL NIGHT TOUR was no exception.

“The setlist was a veritable hit parade, a carefully curated collection of 23 songs that touched on every album in his catalog.” – Charlotte Observer

“His sets are always strong, energetic, filled with all of his radio hits and he’s nothing if not consistent. He’s a solid and reliable performer.” – OC Register

“Warm, energetic and animated as he bounced between three microphone stands in his low-slung cowboy hat and called to the revelers in the back of the venue.” – Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“He could, literally, play nothing but No. 1 songs for his entire set and fans would leave happy after almost two hours of music.” – Gaston Gazette 

Aldean’s a card-carrying member of Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. He returns to Las Vegas on December 6-8 for JASON ALDEAN: RIDE ALL NIGHT VEGAS at Park Theater at Park MGM. In January, Aldean will launch the 2020 WE BACK TOUR with special guests Morgan Wallen, Riley Green and Dee Jay Silver. For more information visit www.JasonAldean.com.

Spotify Celebrates Hot Country With Exclusive Crop Circle Designs Of Luke Bryan, Kelsea Ballerini, And Jason Aldean

It’s summer time and with that comes many ways to enjoy country music in the great outdoors, from backyard barbecues to lakeside bonfires to countryside hikes. To pay homage to one of the Heartland’s great summer outdoor traditions in a truly unexpected and unique way, Spotify Hot Country has produced four exclusive custom-designed crop circles featuring three superstar country artists as well as the Hot Country logo.

Jason Aldean

The spectacular crop circles were created by the Nashville-based renowned crop circles artist Stan Herd, known for creating visual masterpieces using fields as his canvas. He skillfully recreated the faces of music stars Luke Bryan, Kelsea Ballerini, Jason Aldean and the Spotify Hot Country logo in fields outside Lawrence. Each crop circle took approximately one week to create and will last for approximately three weeks.

Kelsea Ballerini

“I usually begin with a simple concept that speaks to something I believe in and a statement that I think is important to make with my art,” said Stan of his artistic process. “When I get to the point that I decide to actually take the drawing to a field, I create a gridded drawing to the site and try to gauge how it might fit the field or terrain. I work with crews to lay out the grid, maybe one inch equaling 20 feet, and begin the simple outline with a weedeater or other tools into existing crops or vegetation. Then we begin to gauge the work through aerial recon or drone shots.”

Luke Bryan

According to Brittany Schaffer, Head of Artist and Label Marketing at Spotify’s Nashville office, “This year Spotify is making a concentrated effort to shine a spotlight on country music and to find truly unexpected ways to celebrate all things country. To give our fans something special we decided to work with artist Stan Herd to bring to life three of the world’s biggest country artists on a beautiful Kansas landscape to pay homage to the Heartland and country music today.”

To Stan, the tie between country music and the crop circle art is all in the roots. “Country music grew out of the experience of working men and woman with a true connection to the land and to United States history as it relates to and informs that cultural essence,” he explained. “It is called ‘Country Music’ because it is about a ‘country’ or rural lifestyle that includes that agrarian connection.”

Following the April re-launch of Spotify’s flagship Hot Country playlist as a newly enhanced video playlist, Spotify Hot Country’s high-profile events at CMA Fest in Nashville in June and the Hot Country Live concert series launch in NYC on July 4th, Spotify is continuing to roll out dynamic new content, playlists, artist takeovers, Fans First activations and live events that appeal to country music fans as well as a broader fanbase. These crop circles are the next step in Spotify’s country journey and show a truly creative spirit to highlight culturally-unique elements of the country music landscape.

Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Rooftop Bar To Open In Nashville June 2018


On the heels of his 20th career chart-topping single, three-time and reigning ACM “Entertainer of the Year” Jason Aldean announces JASON ALDEAN’S KITCHEN + ROOF TOP BAR. In partnership with TC Restaurant Group, the four-story entertainment complex in the middle of downtown Music City”s Lower Broadway (between 3rd and 4th Ave) will open on in June, featuring music on every floor, a one-of-kind homestyle menu and rooftop bar with customized cocktails.

JASON ALDEAN’S KITCHEN + ROOFTOP BAR will feature over 27,000 square feet of space in the neon-lined heart of Music City, 250 dining seats, six bars and a world-class kitchen, welcoming guests for good times, Southern food and live entertainment – all designed to make each visitor a part of The Aldean Army.

“It’s pretty cool to finally have my own spot downtown where people can go and have a good time,” said Aldean. “We’ve been working on this for a while and I’m looking forward to having everyone in town for CMA Music Fest help break it in.”

Live music will spill over two floors each and every day – focusing specifically on new local talent and as well as artists from across the country – and the venue will also be home to the largest outdoor patio on Broadway. The rooftop bar will serve freshly made cocktails with a panoramic view of the Nashville cityscape, while guests inside will find a 1961 4020 John Deere tractor serving as a tribute to Aldean’s multi-PLATINUM No. One hit, “Big Green Tractor.”

World-renowned Chef Tomasz Wosiak teamed up with Aldean to create a menu that is a mix of his Southern-cooking favorites, steaks, pastas, salads and more – including a unique, food-in-a-basket concept and a dessert menu. The superstar worked alongside Chef Tomasz to recreate his mother’s own Homemade Peach Cobbler, ensuring the family recipe was done to perfection.

Two giant video walls will showcase guests’ favorite sporting events – as well as all the hottest videos from today‘s country stars – while the mezzanine level will include an official store packed with memorabilia, T-shirts, hats, jackets and a signature glassware line.

“Aldean has opted to not back down and continue working in the well-worn groove” (UPROXX) that has helped define the genre’s 21st century with his sure-footedness, which plays intomore than 15 million total album sales and dozens of sold-out stadium shows. Continuing with that momentum he becomes only the second Country act in history to score four consecutive chart-toppers on the all-genre Billboard 200 albums chart with REARVIEW TOWN, as all seven of his previous LPs have achieved PLATINUM certification or better. Aldean’s wide-open approach has made him a perennial live-show favorite for the format as he has headlined the biggest stadiums in the United States. “This is unquestionably Jason Aldean’s week” (CMT) with his two-week No. One single and album, as he launches his HIGH NOON NEON TOUR with special guests Lauren Alaina and Luke Combs in Kansas City, MO (5/10), Peoria, IL (5/11) and Des Moines, IA (5/12).

Jason Aldean Updates Fans On Tour Dates

As a result of what happened in Las Vegas this week, we have decided to cancel this coming weekend’s shows. I feel like out of respect for the victims, their families and our fans, it is the right thing to do. It has been an emotional time for everyone involved this week, so we plan to take some time to mourn the ones we have lost and be close with our family and friends. Our plan is to resume the tour the following week in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Our first time back onstage will be a very tough and emotional thing for us, but we will all get through it together and honor the people we lost by doing the only thing we know how to do – play our songs for them. I hope everyone understands why we can’t play this weekend and I’m sorry if anyone is disappointed.

I want to say thank you for the outpouring of love from my friends and fans we have received over the last couple days. You guys have no idea how much you have helped get us through this tough time.

Thank You and God Bless.

JA

This weekend’s dates for the Jason Aldean THEY DON’T KNOW TOUR have been cancelled in Los Angeles, CA; San Diego, CA and Anaheim, CA.  The tour will resume on Oct. 12 in Tulsa, OK.  Refunds are available at point of purchase.
