Proudly sporting the NFL’s Tennessee Titans’ brand new 2018 jerseys personalized with “Hubbard” and “Kelley,” MULTI-PLATINUM duo FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE were in the zone showing downtown Nashville how they roll last night (4/4) at the corner of Broadway and 1st Avenue.

Hosted in celebration of the upcoming 20th season, star players of past and present united with the Titans Cheerleaders for the anything-goes festivities. “It was about as Nashville as you could get,” claimed ESPN, as a DJ and live Titans band pumped up the honky-tonk-lined street for the global entertainers. Even coach Mike Vrabel joined in on the action as he grabbed a mic to accompany FGL onstage for “Get Your Shine On.”

Palpable energy of the multi-block crowd fueled the first of its kind “Tradition Evolved” party as thousands of fans cheered and sang throughout the night to a range of FGL’s hottest jams from their BMLG Records albums. The dynamic pair mixed in new fan-favorites like their history-making chart-topper “Meant to Be” with Bebe Rexha – currently sitting at #1 on the Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart for the 18th consecutive week (tying 4X PLATINUM-certified “H.O.L.Y.”) – and invited Country rising star MORGAN WALLEN for a standout performance of his latest single “Up Down” (featuring FGL). And making it a family affair, both Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley sweetly brought out their wives for a piano-driven “H.O.L.Y.” – marking baby Olivia Hubbard’s first concert.

From the pre-party at FGL HOUSE to the after-party back at their four-story entertainment destination – plus the knockout concert complete with pyro and fireworks in between – headlining the landmark event meant a lot to the former Belmont University students who met in Music City. “It’s an honor to be a part of this organization,” Hubbard shared onstage. “It’s an honor to be in the beautiful city of Nashville – our home state of Tennessee right here – hanging out on a Wednesday night.”

On Saturday (4/7), CMT Hot 20 Countdown will offer viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the explosive night with backstage interviews and must-see concert footage. Fans can tune in to see host Cody Alan tour Nissan Stadium – home of the Titans – with FGL on CMT. Click here to watch the preview.

Nominated for ACM Vocal Duo of the Year, FGL will next perform 2X PLATINUM-certified “Meant to Be” with Rexha at the upcoming 53rd Academy of Country Music Awards live from Las Vegas on April 15 on CBS.

ABOUT MORGAN WALLEN:
Morgan Wallen’s “infectious” (Rare Country) new single “Up Down,” featuring Florida Georgia Line, is catapulting up the Country radio airplay charts and has earned high praise from the likes of Rolling Stone Country, Taste of Country, Morning Hangover, Whiskey Riff and more. Selected as one of CMT’s LISTEN UP “18 for 2018” class of newcomers, the engaging entertainer sharpened his performance skills opening for superstars including FGL and label mate Chris Lane. He’s currently on the road for his first headlining trek – the UP DOWN TOUR. Also an in-demand songwriter, Wallen has co-penned hits for A Thousand Horses, Dustin Lynch, and Kane Brown, as well as Jason Aldean’s sultry Top 5 “You Make It Easy.” His five-song EP THE WAY I TALK (2016) features Top 30 debut single “The Way I Talk,” that made its mark on Spotify’s popular Wild Country, New Boots and New Music Friday playlists. Born in Sneedville, Tenn. (also home to bluegrass legend Jimmy Martin), Wallen was a star on the baseball diamond, attended the same high school as Country superstar Kenny Chesney, and has deep roots in the church. With a Hard Rock-loving preacher for a father and a mother who couldn’t get enough Country and contemporary Christian music, Wallen began performing for his local congregation at the tender age of 3 and went on to develop a strong love of Country, Rock and Hip-Hop. His debut album IF I KNOW ME, produced by award-winning studio whiz Joey Moi, will be released April 27 on Big Loud Records.

MULTI-PLATINUM superstar duo FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE are set to unleash their biggest hits on downtown Nashville April 4, headlining a massive street party and concert to help the NFL’s Tennessee Titans reveal their brand new 2018-2019 uniforms. Watch here.

Launching a new look that coincides with their 20th season as Titans, the FREE show kicks off at 7:00P CT at Music City’s neon-lined crossroads of Broadway and 1st Avenue, just blocks away from the duo’s three-story entertainment destination FGL HOUSE.

Tens of thousands of fans will score the first look at their favorite Titans players in the new uniforms before the FGL takes the stage. Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley told The Tennessean they won’t be holding anything back from their electrifying live-show experience.

“We’re bringing all the bells and whistles,” Hubbard said.

“We were like, ‘If we’re going to play Nashville, we need to do it right. Let’s rock this thing,’” Kelley said, adding they also planned to bring their pyrotechnics. “We’re just jacked. Nashville is a bull’s-eye for everyone to come to right now. Anytime we can represent the city and the Titans, we’re stepping our game up. We’re just thankful.”

Following a year which saw FGL rise to the level of stadium-packing crossover icons with THE SMOOTH STADIUM TOUR 2017 (with Nelly, Backstreet Boys and more supporting guests), and continue their streak of chart success with their 13th No. 1 single, “God, Your Mama, And Me” (ft. Backstreet Boys), the pair have already doubled down on their reputation as genre-defying hitmakers to start 2018.

Bebe Rexha’s easy-riding hit “Meant to Be” (ft. Florida Georgia Line) continues to dominate with 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, which is comprised of airplay, sales and streaming data. Rexha, Hubbard, Josh Miller, and David Garcia co-penned the PLATINUM-certified track, which is still rising through the coveted Top 10 of the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 chart. FGL is currently in the studio working on their upcoming follow-up to 2016’s PLATINUM-certified DIG YOUR ROOTS album (BMLG Records) while details of a new headlining tour are coming soon.
